Main research areas

Gestational diabetes; type 2 diabetes; polycystic ovary syndrome; incretin physiology

Current research

Currently, I investigate the effect of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, liraglutide, on the glucose tolerance in women with prior gestational diabetes and on gall bladder emptying in overweight healthy participants. In addition, I investigate the effect of metformin on the incretin effect in lean women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
