AMRA Medical Announces Qatar Collaboration, Expanding its Global Patient Data Footprint

  • November 21, 2019

Focus on Lean and Obese Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Population

Linköping, Sweden; November 21, 2019 – AMRA Medical announces it has entered into a new collaboration with Hamad Medical Corporation. This collaboration further develops AMRA Medical’s global reach in its efforts to provide precision data to the medical community so that every individual can become — and stay — healthy.

AMRA Medical, the leader in Body Composition Assessment, will be part of the research study “Metabolic and Molecular Profiling of Lean and Obese Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in Qatar in Response to a Lifestyle Intervention Protocol,” supporting the Primary Investigator  Dr. Monica Skarulis of Qatar Metabolic Institute of Hamad Medical Corporation. This study has the aim of understanding the possible role of body fat distribution in a Qatari population with T2DM.

Eric Converse, AMRA Medical’s CEO said, “Engaging in novel research to provide new insights into the challenges of diabetes and metabolic syndrome in Qatar and other populations in the world allows for a better prediction of disease and risk in individual patients across the globe”.

By expanding its offer in the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA), AMRA Medical is giving researchers in Qatar exposure to its next generation phenotyping developed from the largest real-world body composition database in the world. The collaboration also allows AMRA an expanded population base for its global real-world database.
