Renowned Medical Journalist Dan Hurley to speak about "Diabetes Rising" (RSVP Required)

In DIABETES RISING: How a Rare Disease Became a Modern Pandemic, and What to Do About It, Dan Hurley, award-winning medical writer and type 1 diabetic, takes readers to the frontlines of the diabetes crisis, and delivers the first investigative account of the disease's alarming rise and the quest for its true causes and cures.  Pushing past the worn-out conventional wisdom about a disease that is now ten times more common than it was a hundred years ago—and projected to affect one in three Americans — Diabetes Rising  reveals how a small band of passionate, fiercely determined scientists, advocates and public-policy strategists are struggling against orthodoxy to bring diabetes to its knees.
