Current research:
My research focusses on using adjunctive therapy and diabetes technology to address gaps in type 1 diabetes care. I have published various studies involving the use of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists to improve outcomes using automated insulin delivery in adults with type 1 diabetes. The gaps I am currently looking to address are glycemic control, metabolic syndrome/ obesity/ body composition, T1D screening, ketosis, hypoglycemia, and pathways to islet transplantation. My research methods include clinical trials, retrospective chart review, and qualitative analyses.
