Metabolism and Diabetes
Faculty members in the Department of Surgery have made remarkable observations regarding the effect of bariatric surgery on metabolism. This is an active area of both clinical and basic research. Weight loss, perhaps through alterations in feedback from fat or other cell types, may substantially affect metabolic disorders, including diabetes. The pioneering approaches being studied by our faculty hold enormous promise for the millions of patients in America and worldwide living with obesity and diabetes.
