Our research projects

We fund world-class diabetes research

At any one time, we have around 120 diabetes research projects making discoveries across the UK. Each of these research projects is only possible thanks to the generous support of our members, donors and local groups

Every research project is reviewed by experts and approved by our research committee and our panel of people living with diabetes. So you're supporting diabetes research of the highest scientific quality, led by researchers with the skills and experience to succeed.

Your support of our research projects means we can keep tackling the complications of diabetes and bring us one step closer to a cure.

Towards fairer, more effective remission care One Size Doesn’t Fit All: Low‑Calorie Diets and Diabetes

Low‑calorie diets can help some people with type 2 diabetes lose weight and go into remission But this approach doesn’t work equally well for everyone. People from Black African and Caribbean backgrounds are less likely to see the same benefits.

Professor Lousie Goff will explore why by comparing how low-calorie diets affect Black African and Caribbean people and White European people. Understanding these differences could help shape remission care that is more relevant for Black African and Caribbean people, ensuring they receive the support they have too often missed out on.
