Dr. Christine Doucette is an associate professor in the Max Rady College of Medicine at the University of Manitoba and a research scientist at the Children’s Hospital Research Institute of Manitoba (CHRIM). She leads a vibrant research program focusing on defining molecular and metabolic factors that regulate pancreatic insulin secretion, with particular insights on the development of type 2 diabetes. Her team employs rodent cell models to explore the pathological mechanisms contributing to diabetes onset and progression. Notably, they investigate the role of circadian clock regulation in insulin secretion and examine the gene variant HNF-1aG319S, which is associated with youth onset type 2 diabetes in Manitoba. Dr. Doucette's research, funded by CIHR and NSERC, aims to contribute essential knowledge necessary for developing improved treatments and preventive approaches for diabetes.
