Medical School Departments and Programs working together as central
New England’s leading center for diabetes clinical care, innovation, and
discovery. The Center occupies state-of-the-art research space on an
expanding Medical School campus. Basic
investigators benefit from core facilities for deep sequencing, proteomics,
genotyping, fluorescence-activated cell sorting, digital imaging/confocal
microscopy, genomics/bioinformatics, transgenic/knockout mice, and mouse
metabolic phenotyping. Clinical and community investigators benefit from
infrastructure for recruitment and retention of research participants,
measurement, behavioral and nutritional intervention resources and facilities,
and academic-community research partnerships.
