| Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring to Quantify the Effects of NOURISH's Culturally Modified Meals on Asian Americans With Type 2 Diabetes |
About the NOURISH Project: NOURISH is a community-based initiative dedicated to promoting health and well-being through culturally tailored nutrition. Our mission is to strengthen the connection between individuals and the foods they love while encouraging mindful eating, balanced food choices, and sustainable dietary practices. Purpose of the Study: This study will evaluate the effects of medically appropriate and culturally tailored NOURISH meals for individuals with Type 2 Diabetes over a four-week period. We aim to enroll 30 adults with Type 2 Diabetes from the San Francisco Bay Area who identify as Asian Indian or Filipino. Participants will wear a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) to track blood glucose levels. During the intervention, participants assigned to the NOURISH meal phase will receive one week of chef-prepared meals that reflect their cultural food preferences. The study team will evaluate blood glucose responses and collect participant feedback on meal satisfaction. Eligibility Criteria: -Age 18 years or older -Identify as Asian Indian or Filipino -Diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and not currently using insulin -Currently follow, or are willing to follow, a traditional Asian Indian or Filipino diet (consuming these meals at least 3 days per week) -Willing to pick up meals from Stanford, South Bay, or Redwood City Participants Will Receive: -Free Libre 3 Continuous Glucose Monitor (2 sensors for 4 weeks) -One week of culturally tailored meals developed and approved by a Registered Dietitian -A $75 gift card upon successful completion of the study NOURISH CGM Study Pre-Screening: https://redcap.stanford.edu/surveys/?s=8YTJAANYTCDE8TPF |
| Stanford Precision Health ADVANCE Biobank | Who We Are - Our Vision The Stanford Precision Health Biobank is a hospital-wide initiative, leading the way in biomedical revolution through investigation of the role of inherited genetic information in the risk of developing human diseases. We are committed to providing innovative resources that not only protect the integrity of biological samples but also unlock their potential for ground breaking discovery. The dynamic environment of interdisciplinary exploration and collaboration at Stanford School of Medicine campus and beyond in the Bay Area, empowers us to seize unprecedented opportunities to advance human health. This study will focus on creating the largest biobank of blood samples collected from individuals of Asian descent, with or without the diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Goal Of This Study The goal of this study is to learn how our genes affect the risk of getting diseases, how well certain treatments might work, and if some treatments could be harmful. We want to see how differences in genes relate to your medical history. Who Can Participate? We are seeking participants from Asian American communities with or without the diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Individuals of all ages are welcome to join our study. What Is Involved? -You will provide a blood sample at a Stanford location in Palo Alto -Your DNA will be analyzed for inherited traits. -Only approved researchers will access your genetic and medical information, which will be kept confidential and secure. How To Sign Up Read and sign the consent form for the Stanford Precision Health Biobank project by going to this URL: https://redcap.link/PrecisionHealthBiobank After completing the consent, you will be prompted to complete a short survey. Study Participation Participation is entirely voluntary. Upon enrollment, we will contact you to schedule a one-time blood draw, which is expected to take approximately one hour. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What happens to my samples? Once collected, your samples will be processed and stored for analysis using advanced mass spectrometry techniques to detect thousands of molecules. Individual results will not be available for several years, as our project is still in its early stages. Your treating physician will be notified only if a clinically significant result is identified, and only if you consented to receive such notifications. Is there a cost for participating? There is no cost to you for participating. Your health insurance will not be billed. You will receive $20 to cover transportation costs.

| Normal Weight Diabetes Research Study |
We are currently looking for pre-diabetic or diabetic volunteers to determine whether dysfunctional fat and insulin resistance contribute to normal-weight diabetes. Participants have the opportunity to take pioglitazone and/or low-dose tirzepatide which reduce visceral/liver fat and improve insulin resistance with little or no weight loss. Participants can learn about their personalized insulin sensivity and insulin secretion, fat distribution and compositiion, fat cell function, and overall metabolic health. We are also looking for healthy volunteers to participate in our investigative study. To learn more about this study, follow the QR code in the flyer or contact Evelyn Yandle at eyandle@stanford.edu.

| Better Breaks Study | Do you sit all day at work? Let’s fix that! Join a Stanford study to help you take more active breaks throughout your day.
You will take part in an eight-week physical activity intervention! You will be asked to either perform progressive strength
training exercises or take walking breaks throughout the day. As part of this study, you will receive two different reports of
how your body is managing glucose, or blood sugar. This study is looking to see how different types of breaks during the day can
help people improve their blood sugar control. We are currently focusing on recruiting those who are not taking insulin and those
who do not regularly exercise or do physical activity guidelines outside of work. This wave of the study is looking for those with high HBA1C levels- prediabetes range of 5.7-6.4 or 6.5 and above with diabetes currently controlling sugar with lifestyle choices only (not insulin).

| DREAM | DREAM is a study to find out how frequently people with acute pancreatitis develop diabetes.
High blood sugar (blood glucose) is a known complication of acute pancreatitis. Sometimes high
blood sugars can last a few weeks after acute pancreatitis and get better. However, sometimes high
blood sugars may not improve after acute pancreatitis and diabetes is diagnosed. Diabetes can also appear later,
a year or more after acute pancreatitis. Little data is available on how often or why diabetes occurs after acute pancreatitis.
The DREAM study will help to better understand diabetes after acute pancreatitis and who is at increased risk of developing it,
as well as the different types of diabetes that develop after acute pancreatitis.
