Meet the Speakers
Kasia Lipska, MD, is an Associate Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology) at the Yale School of Medicine and a Clinical Investigator at the Yale-New Haven Hospital Center for Outcomes Research and Evaluation (CORE). She is trained in health services research and policy (Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholar), and in diabetes and aging research (Pepper Center Scholar and Beeson Career Development Awardee). Her research program seeks to better understand the balance of benefits and harms of therapies for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and the value of glucose-lowering medications and technologies in diabetes care. Over the past several years, she has also helped bring national attention to the rising costs of insulin by generating high-quality evidence about this issue and by disseminating this evidence to clinicians, policymakers, and the general public. Based on data about harms, benefits, and costs of diabetes treatments, she seeks to develop and implement interventions to help physicians and patients make better clinical decisions and to maximize the safety of diabetes care.
