Medical/Steno Research Laboratory

Medical/Steno Research Laboratory is a specialised clinical research lab with a focus on metabolism, diabetes, endocrinology, adiposity and nutrition.

Medical/Steno Research Laboratory (M-Lab) is a highly specialised clinical research lab with a distinct focus on metabolism, diabetes, endocrinology, adiposity and nutrition.

We carry out advanced “state-of-the-art” metabolic studies in patients and healthy subjects.
We conduct invasive, mechanistic clinical trials to identify physiology, disease processes and effects of treatments.
We develop hormone and metabolite analyses to improve biological understanding, diagnosing and treatment.
We forge and advance cell and tissue models to define and understand cellular processes of diseases.
We conduct clinical research trials employing biomarkers for identification of late diabetic complications and cardiovascular disease.

Medical/Steno Research Laboratory focus on patient safety and high-quality data, and comply with all pertinent national/international guidelines.
