This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) project grant of $644,524 awarded to Howard University, a private Historically Black University, funds a collaborative research effort with North Carolina A&T State University to study the underlying mathematical structure and dynamics of type 2 diabetes progression. The project aims to identify key thresholds and personalized parameters that govern the sharp rise in glucose levels at diabetes onset. It will leverage mathematical models, clinical data, and parameter estimation techniques to advance understanding of diabetes mechanisms and inform personalized treatment approaches. This work has potential to drive new treatment methods and broader societal impact through improved diabetes management. The grant period runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2029.
