David Kerr MBChB, DM, FRCP, FRCPE, is a UK trained endocrinologist and has recently joined Sutter Health after spending almost a decade as a researcher/innovator in Santa Barbara, CA (https://www.davidkerrmd.com/). This began in 2014, with David's appointment as Director of Research and Innovation at Sansum Diabetes Research Institute before moving to the Diabetes Technology Society as their lead for Digital Health last year. David has now joined Sutter Health as Senior Investigator, Diabetes Research and Digital Health Equity.

David's recent research has focused on offering wearable digital health technologies such as continuous glucose monitors to marginalized and historically excluded communities to help understand the potential value of real time physiological data. He has published more than 400 articles, commentaries and opinion pieces as well as co-authoring the first two books focusing on diabetes and digital health.

David's research has also included the use of "food-as-medicine” for adults with or at-risk of diabetes. As part of this research, increasing participation in clinical research by traditionally hard to reach communities has been achieved through the creation of specially trained "Community Scientists” from the same communities. David also has an adjunct position in the Dept of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Rice University in Houston Texas, and recently co-Chair of an NIDDK working group looking at the impact of innovation on furthering research into the heterogeneity of diabetes.
