Steno’s research ambition is to take the lead in translational diabetes research with focus on early disease and prevention.

By translational we mean

• Translate new knowledge on disease physiology into improved prevention and treatment of patients.
• Translate scientific advances into actual implementation in real-life settings and systems of care.
• Translate knowledge on human and social change into clinical practice and real-life settings such as the family home, the workplace, the school and local communities.
