Research summary
AI-generated

David S.H. Bell conducts clinical research in medicine focused on diabetes and its complications. Recent work examines the management of type 1 and type 2 diabetes, diabetic nerve and kidney complications, and the use of newer drug therapies such as GLP-1 receptor agonists (medications originally developed for diabetes that also affect weight). Much of the output takes the form of clinical case reports, reviews, and commentary in endocrinology and diabetes journals.
