William Sansum Diabetes Center

Description

• The William Sansum Diabetes Center is dedicated to improving the lives of people impacted by diabetes through research, education and care. The organization's founder, Dr. William D. Sansum, brought renown to Santa Barbara in 1922 as the first physician in the U.S. to produce and administer insulin. During the mid-1920's, Santa Barbara was one of only a few places in the world where individuals with diabetes could receive insulin and avoid early death from the disease. Today, under the leadership of Ellen Goodstein, William Sansum Diabetes Center remains an extraordinary place, where diabetes research, nutrition, education and diabetes prevention have improved the lives of people worldwide who are impacted by this serious disease. The Center has gained international recognition for its work to develop an artificial pancreas, its success in developing protocols to increase the incidence of healthy babies born to women with diabetes and its work with people with and at risk for type 2 diabetes. Physicians and researchers continue to develop new treatment protocols for people with diabetes. New drugs and medical devices are clinically tested to ensure their efficacy and safety. It is our intention to use our past and present accomplishments to guide us into the future to tap into the energy and commitment that made WSDC what it is today a worldwide leader in diabetes research, education and care.
