In 2000, the Diabetes National Research Group was founded in order to help to advance scientific research in the field of diabetes. Recognizing that funding for research programs is scarce, our mission is to secure funding, which is then used to support exciting, cutting edge research specifically in diabetes and diseases which are directly related. We also assist the public worldwide to learn more about the research we support, as well as other research and diabetes in general, by maintaining an active website and by mailing out general information when such requests are received.
