Our lab spans the CGM and the Diabetes Unit at MGH, as well as the Diabetes Initiative at the Broad Institute. We investigate both common and rare genetic variation contributing to diabetes and utilizes unprecedented sets of genetic data linked to clinical data in massive biobanks and study cohorts.
