ONE WORLD.
Today, more than 220 million people in the world live with diabetes. By
the year 2030, that figure is estimated to jump to 360 million, according
to the World Health Organization. Diabetes knows no boundaries, socioeconomic
level, skin color nor gender. What we do know is that diabetes
continues to cause life-threatening complications, and that one in three
children will be diagnosed with diabetes in their adult lives. These
statistics drive the UC Irvine Diabetes Center
to action. As a clinical facility with staff endociniologists, nutritionists and
certified diabetes educators, the Center treats the whole patient, not just
the disease.
ONE GOAL.
The Center’s multi-faceted, multidisciplinary team of scientists and
clinicians from around the world are actively pursuing better treatments to
help diabetes patients live well today.
A CURE.
The Center’s multi-faceted, multidisciplinary team of scientists and
clinicians from around the world are actively pursuing better treatments to
help diabetes patients live well today.
As part of UC Irvine, a top-tier research institution, the Center is at the
forefront of research. From understanding the cardiovascular complications
of diabetes to an exciting development in the area of immune therapy,
UCI Diabetes has a team of world-renowned scientists and researchers
working to find a cure. For some, a cure means an end to insulin shots
and blood tests. For others, it means an end to complications. For all, we
envision a world without diabetes.
