If left untreated, it can lead to an array of complications, including heart disease, kidney failure, metabolic syndrome, blindness, and nerve damage in the extremities resulting in the need for amputation. As the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, diabetes directly claimed more than 80,000 lives and played a contributing role in a quarter million deaths in 2017. Fortunately, it is a treatable, often preventable disease, and research projects like the ones outlined below give us fresh insights and new hopes for solving one of today’s most pressing public health problems.
