The Strelitz Diabetes Institutes is world-renowned for its research and treatment of neuropathy (nerve damage), the most frequent complication of diabetes.

Neuropathy is life-spoiling, and in its severest cases, can be life-threatening. Nerve damage can cause difficulty with the activities of daily living such as dressing, using a computer, or playing sports. It can cause major symptoms such as bladder and bowel dysfunction and impotence. Neuropathy causes 50,000 amputations each year, reducing life expectancy.

The Strelitz Diabetes Research Institute scientists and medical staff are conducting basic science research and clinical research that focuses on regenerating nerves and reversing nerve damage.
