A research center devoted to the prevention, treatment,
and cure of diabetes
Sansum Diabetes Research Institute is a research center devoted to the prevention, treatment and cure of diabetes. Dr. William D. Sansum founded the non profit organization in 1944 and brought renown to Santa Barbara in 1922 as the first physician in the U.S. to administer life-saving insulin to patients with diabetes.
Today, under the leadership of Lois JovanoviÀ, M.D., Sansum Diabetes Research Institute remains an extraordinary place, where diabetes research, nutrition, education, and diabetes prevention have improved the lives of people worldwide who suffer from this serious disease. The Institute has gained international recognition for work on methods to detect and chart the progress of diabetes, its success in developing protocols to increase the incidence of healthy babies born to women with diabetes, and its work on type 2 diabetes in young people. Physicians and researchers continue to develop new treatment protocols for people with diabetes. New drugs and medical devices are clinically tested to ensure their efficacy and safety.
It is our intention to use our past and present accomplishments to guide us into the future Ò to tap into the energy and commitment that made Sansum Diabetes Research Institute what it is today Ò a worldwide leader in diabetes research, prevention, and treatment.
