🧠Meet Prof. Claudia Cavelti-Weder, #EFSD Future Leaders Mentorship Grant Recipient.
Her iMAC study reveals immune reprogramming in intestinal macrophages in #obesity, uncovering gut-metabolic links&early bariatric biomarkers.

Graphic introducing the EFSD Recipient Research Portrait featuring Professor Claudia Cavelti-Weder from the University Hospital Zurich. The design uses blue and green geometric shapes, with the EFSD logo and text reading “European Foundation for the Study of Diabetes.” A circular photo shows Professor Cavelti-Weder smiling and wearing glasses and a white coat. Visual summarising Professor Claudia Cavelti-Weder’s research titled “Characterisation of human intestinal macrophages in metabolic disease - iMAC study.” The text explains that her research focuses on immune cells in metabolic disease, particularly intestinal macrophages. She discovered transcriptional reprogramming of intestinal myeloid cells in obesity, which suggests immune dampening in the gut that may explain higher infection risks in people with obesity. The EFSD logo appears at the bottom. Graphic stating that the research is supported by the EFSD Future Leaders Mentorship Programme for Clinical Diabetologists, with support from an unrestricted educational grant from AstraZeneca. The design encourages viewers to “Apply for research grants and fellowships” and includes the EFSD logo and website, europeandiabetesfoundation.org.
