Diabetes Spotlight: Kirk Habegger, PhD: The Impact of Glucagon on Metabolic Processes

As a typical midwestern kid, Kirk Habegger tried his hand at all kinds of sports. He grew up in Berne, IN—“A tiny town in the middle of a cornfield,” he says—where there was not much else to do. “I loved playing football, but I was much better at endurance sports like track and swimming,” he says. But Habegger was interested in science, too. “I took advanced biology my junior year of high school, and we covered the cellular respiration and the Krebs cycle, how glucose becomes energy,” he says. “That was the moment I realized that this was all connected.” Habegger wanted to understand how the food we eat becomes the energy that we use to walk, to play sports, to think, to live.
