Watch Out Diabetes (WOD) Details
Watch Out Diabetes is a research-oriented digital health programme focused on developing novel solutions for women at risk of Type II diabetes.Gestational diabetes is one of the strongest risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes: up to 7 in 10 women diagnosed with gestational diabetes develop type 2 diabetes within 5 years of the birth. Watch Out Diabetes is designed to empower women previously diagnosed with gestational diabetes to take control of their health and prevent the progression into type 2 diabetes.Our research is primarily focused on Mendelian randomisation studies in type 2 diabetes that can help to demonstrate the causal relevance of a biomarker or risk factor to risk of developing Type II diabetes. They can also incorporate proteomic, metabolomics, and transcriptomic data, and other bioinformatics resources in order to investigate the biological pathways linking the gene to disease aetiology. Watch Out Diabetes won the prestigious finalist award at the F-Factor competition organised by Founders Forum London in 2015. Often called the Davos of Tech, the Founders Forum is the community for the best global entrepreneurs, CEOs and key investors in technology, including Alphabet, Skype and Huffington Post. Watch Out Diabetes is led by clinicians, academics and students from Cambridge University, University College London (UCL) and Imperial College London.
