#41 JDRF Director of Discovery Research Albert Hwa
Albert Hwa is brilliant and he answers my questions about diabetes research for an hour. What more can you ask for!?
Have you ever wanted to talk to a super smart guy about the research that is happening around diabetes? I'm talking about prevention, treatments, cure, artificial pancreas, responsive insulin, beta cell therapy, encapsulation... there is so much to choose from and Albert speaks about them all like an expert (because he is!).
Albert Hwa, Ph.D. joined the JDRF in January 2007 as the scientific program manager in the beta cell therapies program, for which he develops and manages research initiatives related to islet transplantation, bioengineering, stem cell research, cell encapsulation, and cellular reprogramming.

#40 Anisha Dharshi is the Director of Type 1 Diabetes at the ADA
American Diabetes Association type 1 program director Anisha Dharshi is on the program to talk about her diabetes, the ADA, her family, 1-800-DIABETES and more...
Anisha Dharshi is a person living with type 1 diabetes who happens to also be the director of type 1 diabetes programs for the American Diabetes Association. Anisha holds a Masters in Public Health from Johns Hopkins and has focused her career on working in healthcare. She has worked for the British Medical Journal, the Institute of Medicine and the National Quality Forum. Anisha's entire family lives with diabetes; her sister has Type 1, her father was diagnosed with T1 late in life and her mother has type 2 diabetes.
Anisha may have a serious life and a serious education but she is a light-hearted and upbeat individual who is crazy fun to talk to. I get it if you initially hear that the Director of Programs from the ADA is the guest on episode 40 and think, "boring"... but no, no... Anisha rocks! Interesting aside, spellcheck changes her name every time you type it, this took three times as long to write because of that... :)
