Prof John Clapham?s diabetes lecture at the Radcliffe Centre on World Diabetes Day last Thursday was uncomplicated, insightful and shocking, writes Helena Kealey.
Diabetes affects nearly 400 million people around the world, shortening lifespans, running amok through our blood vessels and robbing us of our health, sight and, in the worst cases, limbs.
The diabetes epidemic increased dramatically in the 1990s and will, Prof Clapham prophesied, leave us with 500 million diabetics by 2030.
