Description
Welcome to the March 2024 episode of DiabetesBio—the American Diabetes Association's podcast for its flagship research publication, Diabetes. In this episode of DiabetesBio, Drs. Kirk Habegger, Darleen Sandoval, and Kevin Williams discuss the latest and greatest content in the March 2024 issue of Diabetes.
1:15 Before getting underway with this week's interviews, Kirk gives a quick shout-out to March's Paper of the Month: "High Doses of Exogenous Glucagon Stimulate Insulin Secretion and Reduce Insulin Clearance in Healthy Humans," by Gray et al. Although they only mention it in passing, Kirk does offer a ringing endorsement: "It's excellent work, and all things glucagon are good."
