OverviewAI-generated summary

Heather Hunter's research focuses on the application and benefits of automated insulin delivery (AID) systems in adults with diabetes. Her work investigates how these systems perform in real-world scenarios, examining patient-reported outcomes and clinical data. Recent publications explore the efficacy of AID in individuals with Type 1 diabetes using the MiniMed 670G system. Hunter's research also extends to Type 2 diabetes, evaluating the benefits of AID across different patient subgroups, including those on GLP-1 receptor agonists and those with varying C-peptide levels or GAD65 antibodies. Additionally, her scholarship examines psychosocial factors, including perceived discrimination among immigrant women and middle-aged and older Black Americans, as well as predictors of liver function in Mexican American individuals with arthritis.
