TrialNet: University of Florida Clinical Center and Network
Description: PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Each year, over 20,000 children and adolescents, as well as a similar number of adults, are diagnosed in the U.S. with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The disease represents a tremendous burden for the both two million Americans having the disorder and society as well, given significant short- and long term complications notwithstanding the tremendous financial costs. The NIH-supported T1D TrialNet Clinical Network is designed to disrupt this cycle through recruitment of non-diabetic, but at-risk individuals. This, for the purpose of undertaking therapies aimed at preventing or delaying the development this disease.
