Sponsored by the Vanderbilt
Diabetes Research and Training Center (DRTC)
The Vanderbilt Diabetes Research and Training Center (DRTC) invites you to a scientific symposium to highlight diabetes research at Vanderbilt. The DRTC, supported by a grant from NIDDK at the NIH, strives to enhance diabetes research and to translate research findings from the laboratory to the clinic and to the community. DRTC-affiliated investigators conduct research ranging from basic science to clinical investigation to translational science.

This year's FALL symposium will begin with keynote speaker Dale Greiner, Ph.D, University of Massachusetts; to be followed by highlights from DRTC-affiliated researcher presentations by Vanderbilt investigators: Kate L.J. Ellacott, Ph.D., Joan A. Randall, MPH, Christoper V.E. Wright, D.Phil. & James M. (Matt) Luther, M.D, MSCI; and a poster session of research from
DRTC-affiliated laboratories.

If you have questions, please contact Deborah C. Brown at dc.brown@vanderbilt.edu or 322-7990.

The Vanderbilt Diabetes Research and Training Center is
supported by NIH grant DK20593.
