Diabetes Research Connection
Funding for diabetes research has decreased significantly over the past several years. Of the funding available, 97% goes to established scientists conducting conventional research.Scientists starting out in diabetes research, also known as early-career scientists, have a difficult time finding money to support their innovative ideas. The Diabetes Research Connection, a local nonprofit organization, created a platform connecting donors directly with early-career scientists, enabling them to perform peer-reviewed, diabetes research designed to prevent and cure type 1 diabetes, minimize its complications and improve the quality of life for those living with the disease.

TCOYD Research Registry
For information about joining TCOYD's Research Registry, call 1-855-850-3599 (toll free).Your inquiry does not commit you to joining the program – it only tells us that you are interested in learning more. Then, you can decide if T1-REDEEM is right for you.
If you join, TCOYD will contact you directly about new studies.
We're now conducting the following study.
T1-REDEEM Study
TCOYD currently needs participants for a unique project sponsored by the National Institutes of Health as part of a collaboration between the TCOYD Research Registry and a team at the University of California, San Francisco.Unlike previous studies we have conducted, this one will evaluate a program to help adults with type 1 diabetes be more successful living with and managing their diabetes. Something that people rarely talk about is how tough type 1 diabetes can be and how many people find diabetes to be stressful and a challenge. So we developed the T1-REDEEM project (Reducing Distress and Enhancing Effective Management).
T1-REDEEM compares two, proven small group programs to see which one works best for people with type 1 diabetes. Each program begins with a one-day workshop (held on a Saturday in San Diego) and the rest is completed online and by phone. Both programs are behavioral, meaning that you will not be asked to change or try any new medications or equipment. You will receive a gift card for your time and there are no costs to you or your insurance. There is no age limit to taking part and we welcome anyone age 19 years or older!
We hope that you will be interested in learning more about this exciting new program!
Call 1-855-850-3599 to get more information and see if you are eligible. Living with Type 1 diabetes can be tough, and this new program is designed to help reduce the ongoing stresses and strains that most people with diabetes experience. We hope to hear from you so that we can tell you more about T1-REDEEM and answer your questions.

UCSD GRA Study
Purpose - To test the effect a glucagon receptor antagonist (GRA), essentially a glucagon blocker, has on insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular health in people with type 1 diabetes.
Study Drug - REMD-477 35mg in .5mL of normal saline given subcutaneously. REMD-477 is given here at the clinic once a week for 10-12 weeks. There is a placebo for this study, so you have 50% chance of getting the study drug and 50% of getting placebo.
Study Length - Approximately 3.5 months. 15-17 total visits to the research clinic.
Main Procedures - Physical exam, vital signs, blood collection, cardiovascular tests, insulin sensitivity test and insulin withdrawal test. The cardiovascular tests both measure the health of your blood vessels and are called FMD and EndoPAT tests. The FMD uses an ultrasound to measure an artery in your upper arm and the EndoPAT measures the health of your capillaries in your fingers. Both tests are non-invasive and take between 15-25 minutes each. The insulin sensitivity test (also called a clamp) measures your bodies response to different rates of insulin infusion. The test takes about 8 hours, we'll put in 2 IVs to give you insulin, dextrose and draw your blood. You'll be in a private room, resting in a regular hospital bed during the testing. The insulin withdrawal test measures your ketones over 6-8 hours after we suspend your insulin. We'll put in 1 IV to monitor blood sugars and ketones and You'll be in a private room, resting in a regular hospital bed during the testing.
Payment - $50 for Screening, $300 for Insulin Sensitivity visit 1, $300 for Cardiovascular visit 1 and dose 1, $50 for weekly dosing visits, $200 for Cardiovascular visit 2, $300 for Insulin Sensitivity visit 2, $300 for Insulin Withdrawal visit 1 and $50 for the final safety follow-up visit ( up to $1800).
