In two weeks, Anne Sumner, Dr. Anne (NIH/NIDDK), Senior Investigator at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) and Director of the NIH-Rwandan Health Program, will explore why universally effective diabetes screening requires a deeper understanding of diabetes physiology at the Emory Global Diabetes Research Center & GCDTR Distinguished Lecture 2026.
