He was the first researcher to test the hormone leptin as a treatment for lipodystrophy as part of a clinical trial that started at UT Southwestern in 2000. In 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the drug form of leptin for the treatment of generalized lipodystrophy. His current research focuses on whether leptin therapy will improve m…

"Genetics of Steatotic Liver Disease: Pathogenesis, Prognosis and Implications for Treatment" Internal Medicine Distinguished Alumni Award Recipient The Daniel W. Foster, M.D., Lecture Speaker: Helen H. Hobbs, M.D., M.Sc. Professor & Chief of Clinical Genetics Dallas Heart Ball Chair in Cardiology Research Department of Internal Medicine UT Southwestern Medical Center About Helen Hobbs: An internationally recognized physician-scientist whose work has changed our understanding of cholesterol, heart disease, and fatty liver disease, Dr. Hobbs studies how differences in our genes affect the way the body processes fats, and her discoveries have helped explain why some people develop high cholesterol or liver disease while others do not. One of her major achievements was establishing the Dallas Heart Study, a landmark, multiethnic, population-based cohort that enabled groundbreaking discoveries, most notably the identification of variations in the PCSK9 gene that naturally keep cholesterol low and p…

Please join our in-person community forum discussing the FFP In Traumatic BRAin INjury (FIT-BRAIN) Trial. What is the FIT-BRAIN Trial? “Multi-institutional Phase 2/3 Trial of Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) in Patients with Moderate to Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)” or FIT-BRAIN Trial is a research study that will look at how plasma (the colorless fluid part of blood) given to traumatic brain injury patients soon after injury will affect the brain, and see if it will help in their injury recovery. We need help from our community! We are participating in a U.S. study to see if plasma, the clear part of blood, given soon after arrival in the emergency department can improve survival in patients who have suffered a traumatic brain injury. You will have a chance to speak with the physician leading this trial, ask questions, and learn about trauma research.  Presenter: Dr. Linda Dultz, Program Director of UT Southwestern’s surgical critical care fellowship and Medical Director of Parkland Hospita…
