Advancing basic and translational research in diabetes and related metabolic disorders

The Center for Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases (CDMD) at IU School of Medicine is a world-renowned center focused on centralizing and fostering research that strengthens the diabetes research base throughout Indiana.

As one of only 17 NIH-designated Diabetes Research Centers in the United States, the Center for Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases is funded by both NIH and the IUPUI Signature Center Initiative.

Members of the CDMD and their partnerships represent a broad network of diabetes researchers in academia, heath care and industry across the state of Indiana.

Supported by four exceptional research cores, the highly collaborative research base includes more than 110 investigators engaged in basic, translational and clinical research along four fundamental themes of diabetes and related metabolic disorders.
