a first-of-its-kind mouse metabolic phenotyping core. These
programs and resources have expanded the reach of diabetes
research and care around the world.
William V. Tamborlane, MD, was
the recipient of the Outstanding
Achievement in Clinical Diabetes
Research Award, recognizing his exceptional contributions in patientoriented clinical outcomes research that
have had a significant impact on diabetes prevention and treatment.
Dr. Tamborlane is a professor and chief
of pediatric endocrinology at Yale
University and deputy director of the Yale Center for Clinical
Investigation in New Haven, Conn. Dr. Tamborlane is renowned
for patient-oriented research. Employing a wide range of innovative and sophisticated techniques, his efforts have advanced
clinical trial methodologies, behavioral interventions, and epidemiologic cohort studies in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Among Dr. Tamborlane's major accomplishments are pioneering
studies in the development of insulin pump therapy; demonstration that intensive diabetes treatment impairs counterregulatory
responses to hypoglycemia; the development of novel behavioral
interventions to improve outcomes for adolescents with type 1
diabetes; and the development of the first registry of youth with
type 2 diabetes in the United States.
Dr. Tamborlane has held leadership roles in several multicenter
diabetes trials and studies, including the Diabetes Control and
Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions
and Complications (DCCT/EDIC) study, the Treatment Options
for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) study,
JDRF's Continuous Glucose Monitoring Study Group, the
Pediatric Diabetes Consortium T2D Clinical Trials Network, and
the Glycemia Reduction Approaches in Diabetes: A Comparative
Effectiveness study. With more than 850 publications and a
demonstrated commitment to mentoring students, fellows, and
junior faculty, Dr. Tamborlane continues to shape an outstanding
legacy in clinical diabetes investigation.

With an extensive publication history, Dr. Weinstock has assumed essential roles in several national collaborative research
projects, including the TODAY study, the T1D Exchange studies,
and the Informatics for Diabetes Education and Telemedicine

pursue diabetes research and practice in their careers.
This year's Outstanding
Educator in Diabetes Award
recognized Davida F. Kruger,
MSN, APRN-BC, BC-ADM.
The award acknowledges a
