John Park GUYS!!!! we need input! I dont want to sound pedantic but getting a little worried about how we are going to write this up. We need to meet up I think, and organise on structure. What each is going to write. Its no good just to write up what you want because we could be talking about stuff we don't really need.

I've put up a brief intro. I know its not very good but at least its a start. I was thinking Diabesity -

Intro - (the increasing trend of obesity, and the huge increase in rates of diabetes )

The relationship between Diabetes and Obesity (causal evidence and studies etc)

The Pathophysiology of how obesity can lead to Diabetes (maybe your bit Luke plus other things)

Treatments

Future work

Collaborations (e.g. Diabesity the EU project etc)

Just a start. !!!! But suggestions please!!!
