We are using genetics to better understand the pathophysiological intersect of type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and to better understand how and in whom statin use may lead to a higher risk of developing type-2 diabetes. This project is funded by the National Institutes of Health.
Other collaborators on this project include Alexis Frazier-Wood, Craig Stump, and Jose Ordovas.
The primary research at Zuckerman College of Public Health is to advance fundamental, translational, and applied research that addresses the health needs of diverse populations and aims to make a profound and measurable impact on the health and well being of Arizonans and those living in the Southwest. The College’s research office fosters and supports this goal.
