## Abstract

The Michigan Center for Diabetes Translational Research (MCDTR) supports type 2 translational research in 
diabetes among the faculty of the University of Michigan and regional, national, and international institutions. 
The specific aims of the MCDTR are to: 
• Raise awareness of, and interest in, type 2 translational research in diabetes and related conditions 
and create an environment that supports such research 
• Identify, develop, and support researchers engaged in research to translate interventions with 
proven efficacy into real world health care settings, communities, and populations at risk 
• Administer cores that provide services critical to type 2 translational research in diabetes for new and 
established investigators 
• Foster interdisciplinary collaborations to advance type 2 translational research in diabetes 
• Provide education and training opportunities in diabetes translational research 
• Administer a Pilot and Feasibility Study Grants Program to attract new investigators and enable them 
to generate preliminary data for successful grant applications 
The Center supports four cores. The Administration Core maintains the MCDTR Research Base and is 
responsible for the direction, functioning, and finances of the center. It administers the Pilot and Feasibility 
Study Grants Program and the Enrichment Program and maintains the website. The Methods and 
Measurement Core is focused on design and analysis issues in translational research (including health 
economics). The Intervention and Technology Research Core is focused on technology-based approaches 
to intervention delivery, health communication, patient empowerment and peer support. The Community 
Outreach and Engagement Core focuses on community engagement, intervention implementation and 
dissemination with special focus on cultural competence, health disparities, and community-based 
participatory research.
