AI insulin dose prediction for type 2 diabetes
This study tests an artificial intelligence system that helps predict the right insulin dose for people with type 2 diabetes who are using an insulin pump in the hospital. The goal is to make blood sugar control safer and more accurate.

Study how fitness and insulin resistance relate to diabetes
This study looks at how low physical activity, insulin resistance in small blood vessels, and cardiorespiratory fitness connect to diabetes and blood sugar control.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetes (insulin-requiring, type 1 or type 2)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,152 recruiting diabetes (insulin-requiring, type 1 or type 2) studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a diabetes (insulin-requiring, type 1 or type 2) trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a diabetes (insulin-requiring, type 1 or type 2) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
