Limited Competition: Continued Follow-up of Subjects and Initiation of a Second Case-control Cohort in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in The Young Study (TEDDY)

Project Summary/Abstract The funded parent application intent is to provide resources to the TEDDY Data Coordinating Center (DCC) to continue studies focused on the identification of environmental exposures that lead to the initiation of autoimmunity and its progression to type 1 diabetes. This request for funds for an administrative supplement will continue the DCC’s efforts towards the support of TEDDY subject follow-up and the second case-control cohort analysis (NCC2). This additional support enables uninterrupted laboratory support, sample storage, and investigator small group meetings for discussion and scientific planning.
