Miriam S. Udler, MD PhD
Assistant Professor
Miriam is physician scientist at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and an investigator in the MGH Center for Genomic Medicine. She is also an Associate Member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Dr. Udler is a practicing endocrinologist and the founding director of the MGH Diabetes Genetics Clinic, which provides genetic testing, counselling, and management to patients with monogenic forms of diabetes. Her team’s research focuses on genetic contribution to diabetes risk and clinical applications of genomic data, including using genetics to identify atypical forms of diabetes and to dissect disease heterogeneity.
Sara Cromer
Post-doctoral Fellow
Sara is an endocrinologist at MGH. She obtained her medical degree from Baylor College of Medicine and completed her Internal Medicine residency at New York Presbyterian Hospital - Columbia University Medical Center. Her research focuses on social determinants and genetic contributions to risk of diabetes. She has also investigated the etiology of atypical diabetes, serving on the MGH recruitment team for the Rare and Atypical Diabetes Network (RADIANT) study.
