The Monogenic Diabetes Team at the Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust took home the BMJ ‘Diabetes Team of the Year’ award from the ceremony hosted on the 5th May. Working collaboratively with the University of Exeter Medical School has resulted in what the judges’ remarked as a “rapid translation of world-leading research into clinical practice” for better monogenic diabetes care. The transformational work on monogenic diabetes has helped people across the country and around the world by ensuring monogenic diabetes can be correctly identified, diagnosed and managed.
