Diabetes research has a distinguished history in the UK, and Diabetes UK (formerly the British Diabetic Association) has played a key role in this since its formation in 1934.

Over the past 75 years Diabetes UK has been one of the major supporters of diabetes research in the UK.

Research funded by Diabetes UK is of the highest scientific quality and continues to have national and international impact, and to make a real difference to the lives of people with diabetes.
