The Lundquist Institute (TLI) announced that its Institute for Translational Genomics and Populations Sciences contributed to a new study published in Nature Genetics on June 8, 2023 of the DNA of more than 55,000 people worldwide. The study sheds light on how humans maintain healthy blood sugar levels after we have eaten, with implications for our understanding of how the process goes wrong in type 2 diabetes. The findings could help inform future treatments of type 2 diabetes, which affects over 460 million people worldwide and nearly 38 million people in the U.S.
