Can Globalization work for the Poor?

Series

Oxford Martin School: Public Lectures and Seminars

Embed

Panel discussion on whether Globalisation can benefit the poor with Alex Gennie, Ian Goldin, Rushanara Ali MP, James Drummond and Nick Gowing.

Globalisation is bound in a complex relationship with poverty. Its forces are powerful and can act to either destroy or radically improve the economic position of areas in development. Despite this, the opportunities that the phenomenon presents for development are largely underexplored and underexploited.

Genetics and Diabetes

Series

Diabetes and Obesity

Embed

Dr Anna Gloyn talks about her research on the genetics of diabetes.

An estimated 366 million people worldwide now suffer from diabetes and the global epidemic is getting worse. Dr Anna Gloyn uses genetic variants in humans as tools to identify critical regulatory pathways for insulin secretion and action. Current research projects are focused on the translation of genetic association signals for type 2 diabetes and glycaemic traits into molecular mechanisms for diabetes and clinically useful tools. Understanding how genes relate to types of diabetes will enable better diagnosis and treatment for patients.
