Everything you want to know about Adipose Tissue: From Cellular Mechanisms to Clinical Complications
Diabetes Insights - Breakthroughs and InnovatorsShow Notes
In this episode, EASD TV host Vivienne Parry sits with Prof. Mikael Rydén (Karolinska Institute), recipient of the 40th Camillo Golgi Prize, about his groundbreaking research on adipose tissue.
Prof. Rydén shares insights into how different fat cell subtypes influence disease progression, particularly in diabetes and obesity. His work highlights the potential of precision medicine in tailoring treatments based on the composition of adipose tissue, shifting the focus from generalised treatments to more personalised approaches.
Join us for a deep dive into how Prof. Rydén’s research is revolutionising diabetes care and what it means for the future of metabolic health.

In this EASD TV interview, Prof. Zachary Gerhart-Hines (Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research), 61st EASD Minkowski Prize recipient, discusses research into the neurokinin-2 receptor (NK2R) and its potential to change how we approach weight management and metabolic health. Where many existing treatments focus on reducing food intake, NK2R activation could offer a complementary strategy by increasing energy expenditure, influencing appetite and improving insulin sensitivity.
