About the CDTR
The Washington University Center for Diabetes Translation Research (CDTR) is a regional and national resource to investigators committed to translating interventions that have demonstrated efficacy into healthcare settings, communities, and populations at-risk. The CDTR supports studies around two interacting scientific themes: the root causes of diabetes and disparities; and the prevention of obesity as a major contributing cause of Type 2 diabetes. The Center provides access to core services provided by exceptional national leaders in support of real-world translation research. It also supports a pilot and feasibility program and enrichment program to support team science and transformative diabetes research. For more information.
