President’s foreword

The Francophone Foundation for Diabetes Research (FFRD) serves as the “armed wing” of the Francophone Diabetes Society (SFD) with the aim of promoting excellence in diabetes research, a common disease whose prevalence continues to rise. High-level and large-scale research is truly essential to get further insight into the mechanisms involved in the development of diabetes and its complications, as well as to improve their treatment and prevention.

The FFRD supports all research on diabetes.

The FFRD supports clinical, basic, and translational research.

The supported basic research projects address major themes of type 1 and type 2 diabetes

covering subjects such as pancreatic beta cells, insulin resistance, and intestinal microbiota.

The clinical research projects, on the other hand, address the themes of type 1 and type 2 diabetes, as well as gestational diabetes

and often involve large multicenter cohort studies.

Since 2013, the Foundation has been:

0

0

0

0

0
