Dr. Mathews is currently associate professor of pathology, immunology and laboratory medicine at the University of Florida College of Medicine. He also serves as the Sebastian Family Professor for Diabetes Research.
His laboratory research continues to improve ways to treat individuals with Type I diabetes, commonly known as juvenile diabetes. He also strives to meet the need to identify a true cure for the disease. In an attempt to meet this need, Dr. Mathews performs studies seeking to improve our understanding on the means by which Type I diabetes develops, both in humans as well as in mouse models of the disease.
Dr. Mathews received both his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in foods and nutrition from the University of Georgia. He completed his postdoctoral fellowship at The Jackson Laboratory, a leading genetics research laboratory.
