Dr. Gubitois-Klug earned a B.S. in chemical engineering, summa cum laude, as a Langsdorf Fellow at Washington University in St. Louis in 1990. She continued her studies at Washington University School of Medicine in the Medical Scientist Training Program, completing her MD and doctoral thesis in Neuroscience in 1999. Dr. Gubitosi-Klug completed training in pediatrics and pediatric endocrinology at University Hospitals’ Rainbow Babies and Children’s.
Dr. Gubitosi-Klug’s clinical and laboratory research remain focused on the development, progression, and pathogenesis of the complications of diabetes, with the hopes of preventing these complications in her young patients. She is principal investigator of the Clinical Coordinating Center of the NIDDK-funded Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Control Study (EDIC), the follow-up study to the landmark Diabetes Control and Complications Trial. This study is now in its 40th year! She served as Vice Chair of the multicenter Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth Study (TODAY) and is the Chair of the new NIDDK-funded DISCOVERY Consortium with the goal of discovering risk factors for youth-onset type 2 diabetes. In her clinical practice, Dr. Gubitosi-Klug cares for general pediatric endocrine patients, but, in keeping with her research, has a special interest in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
