Role and contribution

Philippe Froguel contributes to genetic studies (selection genes, of SNPs, genotyping, statistical analyses) of candidate genes for T2D.



Scientific profile

Philippe Froguel is an expert in complex trait genetics and has worked for 15 years in the genetics of T2D, identifying the first diabetes genes (MODY genes) and pioneering in the T2D candidate gene and positional cloning approaches in both monogenic and polygenic forms of T2D and of obesity. According to ISI Thomson he is the most referred researcher in the field of Diabetes.
