Podiatry Research

Translational Research to Improve Care

---

The surgeons and investigators in the Division of Podiatry are engaged in research aimed at improving treatments for podiatry patients. Our researchers have been the principal investigators on NIH, ADA and Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) grants, as well as for several industry-sponsored clinical trials. In addition, our investigators focus on "bench to bedside" research and look at new ways to study diabetes and its complications, with the main emphasis on wound healing and cardiovascular disease.
