The University of Glasgow today announced the launch of a new master's programme in diabetes in response to the global epidemic of the disease and obesity.
The Overseas Development Institute - a British think tank - said last month the number of overweight and obese adults in the developing world had almost quadrupled to around one billion since 1980.
It predicted a huge increase in heart attacks and diabetes as a result.
The launch of the new master's programme is significant if cutting-edge technologies are to be harnessed to meet the challenge presented by diabetes.
