Summary

This study aims to understand how fat buildup in the pancreas causes type 2 diabetes and how losing weight can reverse it. Researchers will have 104 overweight participants follow a strict low-calorie diet for 8-12 weeks to lose weight, then track changes in their body's fat processing and pancreas function. The goal is to learn the exact biological steps that allow weight loss to put diabetes into remission, which could lead to better future treatments.
