Compared with normal-weight children, obese youth have a higher chance of developing diseases like Type 2 diabetes. With 1 in 4 Australian children now being overweight or obese, effective treatment programs need to be developed alongside those aimed at prevention. This program of research aims to identify which overweight/obese children are most likely to develop diabetes, with a particular focus on how infant nutrition regulates important growth factors to alter long-term diabetes risk.

与正常体重的儿童相比，肥胖的青少年患2型糖尿病等疾病的几率更高。澳大利亚每4名儿童中就有1名超重或肥胖，因此需要制定有效的治疗方案，同时制定预防方案。该研究计划旨在确定哪些超重/肥胖儿童最有可能患糖尿病，特别关注婴儿营养如何调节重要的生长因子以改变长期糖尿病风险。
