Shanta Persaud PhD

Reader in Diabetes and Endocrinology, King’s College London.

Shanta was awarded her PhD on “Intracellular signalling in the regulation of insulin release” in 1989 and held a Wellcome Trust Research Fellowship before taking up an academic post at King’s College London.

She is currently a Reader in Diabetes & Endocrinology at King’s. Shanta’s main research interests lie in defining the intracellular signalling pathways regulating insulin secretion from pancreatic b-cells. The major focus of her work has been on how b-cells recognise external stimuli, and how they transduce that recognition into an appropriate secretion of insulin.

More recently she has also been active in research aimed at generating physiologically-competent replacement b-cells from embryonic stem cells.
