Gareth Lim is a professor in the Faculty of Medicine at the Université de Montréal, specializing in Health Sciences and Medical Sciences. His research focuses on the regulatory mechanisms of glucose and energy homeostasis, particularly through complex signaling networks involving various proteins. He studies the role of scaffolding proteins, especially the 14-3-3 family, in coordinating cellular processes crucial for understanding metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity. Lim’s lab examines how these proteins influence pancreatic beta-cell function and adipocyte development. These research endeavors aim to uncover critical insights into the escalating prevalence of type 2 diabetes and obesity globally, with a commitment to developing therapeutic strategies for these conditions.
