This project aims to investigate new methods of treating type 2 diabetes. Initially it will involve developing new MRI and MR spectroscopy methods for multi-organ assessment of physiology and metabolism. It will subsequently involve coordinating an experimental study of the effect of a very low calorie diet on type 2 diabetes patients from Caucasian and South Asian ethnic groups (who are expected to respond differently). This will involve setting up the experimental protocol, overseeing the acquisition of data, analysing the data and presenting the results. It will suit a physicist who has an interest in experimental and numerical approaches, and an enthusiasm to apply their scientific approach in the area of biomedicine. This project will provide important new information on the effectiveness of potential new approaches to treating type 2 diabetes, for both Asian and Caucasian ethnic groups

本项目旨在探索治疗2型糖尿病的新方法。最初，它将涉及开发新的MRI和MR光谱方法，用于多器官生理和代谢评估。随后，它将涉及协调一项实验研究，研究极低卡路里饮食对高加索和南亚种族的2型糖尿病患者的影响（预计他们的反应不同）。这将包括建立实验方案，监督数据的获取，分析数据和展示结果。它将适合对实验和数值方法感兴趣的物理学家，并热衷于将他们的科学方法应用于生物医学领域。该项目将为亚洲和高加索人种治疗2型糖尿病的潜在新方法的有效性提供重要的新信息
