Research and innovation (children and young people's diabetes service)
Southampton Children’s Hospital is involved in paediatric diabetes research through our clinical research facility (CRF).
Our research interests include:
- Early detection of type 1 diabetes
- Studies aiming to delay the onset of clinical type 1 diabetes
- Research aiming to preserve beta cell function soon after diagnosis
- Diabetes technology and hybrid closed loop systems.
Families are encouraged to ask the diabetes team about any research opportunities that they could take part in.
