Description:
This spring the Institute for Public Health partnered with the Center for Diabetes Translation
Research (CDTR) on “Next Steps in Public Health: Eliminating
Population-Based Disparities in Diabetes and Obesity.” Led by CDTR director and
Institute scholar Debra
Haire-Joshu, PhD, MSEd, Joyce Wood Professor at the Brown School and School
of Medicine, fifty researchers from a variety of disciplines from across
Washington University, as well as CDTR members from external institutions, came together for a
day of brainstorming and discussion to develop papers that inform real world
approaches to prevent racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities associated
with Type 2 diabetes and obesity.
