The University of Ulster is carrying out the first research study to examine the role of daily exercise in children at risk of developing diabetes in the United Arab Emirates.
The Gulf country has the second highest prevalence of diabetes in the world with almost 20 per cent of the Emirati population suffering from the disease.
Dr Gareth Davison from Ulster?s Sport and Exercise Sciences Research Institute at the Jordanstown campus, is running an eight week exercise programme with overweight children at the American International School in Dubai.
