CDI Community Seminar Series
Diabetes Research That Matters

The Caswell Diabetes Institute is bringing diabetes research and information to the community! Join us for the first talk of the series, Diabetes 101: Understanding Causes, Types, and Hope for the Future.
During this session, we break down what diabetes is, why it happens, and how it affects our daily lives—no medical degree required. We’ll clarify the differences between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, unpack common risk factors, and explore the exciting ways University of Michigan experts are leading the way in prevention, treatment, and the search for a cure.
