Research

At the Emory Global Diabetes Research Center (EGDRC), we leverage our extensive network to develop and advance the abilities of Emory, US, and non-US researchers to engage in world-class research in diabetes and other related non-communicable diseases. Our research seeks to understand causes and consequences, investigate better treatments and care delivery, investigate prevention methods, and inform policy by exploring risk factors such as sociodemographics, nutrition, obesity, physiology, and physical activity.

Independent Study

The INDEPENDENT study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated multi-condition depression and diabetes care intervention for diabetes patients in four cities in India (Chennai, Delhi, Visakhapatnam, and Bengaluru) who have clinically significant depression symptoms.
