The

Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Medicine at MUSC

has a fifty year distinguished history of clinical, translational,

and basic research on the complications of diabetes. A salient

example was participation, under the leadership of Dr. John A.

Colwell, in the design, implementation and conduct of the Diabetes

Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) (1983-93) and its follow-up

study, Epidemiology of Diabetes Intervention and Complications

(EDIC) (1994 to present). These landmark studies proved the utility

of intensive management of diabetes in preventing micro- and

macro-vascular complications. They led to a 10-year NIH Program

Project award to the Division to seek biochemical ‘Markers and

Mechanisms for Macrovascular Disease in Diabetes’ (1997-2007) (PI,

Garvey, Co-PI, Lyons). In its totality, this body of work (DCCT,
