Psychosocial Challenges of Diabetes Management

Dr. Allyson Hughes Thumbnail

“I think as researchers we need to do a better job of recruiting people that don't fit the usual demographic and actually represent the population.”

Dr. Hughes talks to us about the intersection of behavioral medicine and diabetes treatment: in other words, the psychosocial challenges of diabetes management.


Ally is an Assistant Professor at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine, Department of Primary Care.  She is passionate about health policy. Her research in diabetes focuses on the psychosocial challenges of self-management including health equity, severe hypoglycemia, diabetes distress, diabetes complications, and disability.
