Application/Key learning points: LSE Health and Social Care was established as a research centre in 2000. Its research’s contributions to health and social care policy and practice have been recognised through a number of awards, accreditations, and the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education. The first link is a 123-page study, which provides a comprehensive representation of Type 1 & 2 diabetes in five countries of the European Union (Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Spain) and addresses the associated costs, both direct and indirect. The study also quantifies prevalence data from the local perspective and uses a stratification of both qualitative and quantitative analysis to provide policy options. The second link is a 12-page research article, showing the potential that behavioural and metabolic interventions might have in reducing the impact that diabetes has on Qatar’s health system.
