Dr. Debbie Thurmond, Ph.D., Director of the City of Hope's Arthur Riggs Diabetes & Metabolism Research Institute discusses the institute's focus on the intersection of diabetes and cancer, helping to answer the reasons why diabetes is significantly associated with an increase in cancer and how the growing number of highly effective cancer therapies may cause insulin-dependent diabetes. She also talks about how philanthropic support will drive more discovery for the diabetic patient community and address some of the biggest drivers of inequity across healthcare.
