Genetics of Diabetes

As part of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation/Wellcome Trust Diabetes and Inflammation Laboratory (DIL), Professor David Dunger's group are currently collecting over 10,000 DNA samples from children with diabetes throughout the UK (UK GRID). Embedded within that study is a study of early markers and genetics of diabetic complications combining the Oxford regional Prospective Study (ORPs) and a new nephropathy family study cohort (NFS).
