About this episode of Science & Beyond:
Around 5.6 million people in the UK are currently living with diabetes. In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Daniela Nasteska as we unpack this pressing topic.
Focusing our lens on Type 2 Diabetes, where the body’s cells become less responsive to insulin, the hormone at the heart of the condition. Together, we explore the science behind the scenes, from islet cells and incretins to the mechanisms of insulin resistance, while also delving into Daniela’s inspiring personal journey.
From a curious young girl to a scientist shaping the future of metabolic research, Daniela shares how her career path unfolded and why she chose to take the road less travelled.
It’s a story of bold career (and geographical!) moves, passion for change, and the human side of scientific discovery. If you’ve ever wondered how research meets real life, this is the episode for you.
