Dana Dabelea is the Conrad M. Riley Distinguished Professor of epidemiology at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. She is known for her work on how both internal and external factors can influence how diabetes and obesity develops within individuals.

Education

[edit]

She obtained her M.D. (1990) and her Ph.D. (1997) from the University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Timișoara, Romania. Her postdoctoral fellowship in epidemiology was completed at the National Institutes of Health in their Diabetes Epidemiology and Field Studies in Phoenix, Arizona.[1]

Career

[edit]

Dabelea joined the University of Colorado School of Medicine in 2001, and was promoted to full professor in 2011. She was named the Conrad M. Riley Distinguished Professor in 2013.[1][2]

Research

[edit]

Dabelea is known for her work on pediatric obesity, diabetes prevention, lifecourse epidemiology, and Native American health. Her early research focused on diabetes research within the Pima Indians population.[3][4] She subsequently began to focus on type 2 diabetes rates, specifically in those of the younger generation,[5][6] where her research has also examined the frequency of diabetes among different groups and has determined that non-HIspanic whites have the highest rates of type I diabetes.[7] She has also worked on diabetes in pregnant women.[8]
