Diabetes and Related Traits
We aim to elucidate molecular mechanisms of metabolic diseases, using this information to refine subtype definitions for precision medicine.

About our Research
Our research focuses on the molecular analysis of traits related to metabolic diseases. We combine state-of-the-art laboratory and statistical methods in large human cohorts to study the complex interplay between molecular mechanisms, environment and lifestyle in the context of the onset and progression of disease.
