Ananta Addala
Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (Endocrinology)
BioDr. Ananta Addala is a pediatric endocrinologist and physician scientist at Stanford University addressing access in pediatric type 1 diabetes management and outcomes. As a physician with a background in pediatric endocrinology, epidemiology, and behavioral health, she aims to build an evidence-based approach to addressing T1D disparities by systematically evaluating youth-, family-, provider-, and system-level barriers to optimal diabetes care in youth who underutilize diabetes technology.
To date, her publications have demonstrated that the disparities in pediatric T1D by socioeconomic status are worsening in the US, provider bias against public insurance is common, and public insurance mediated interruptions to diabetes technology adversely impact glycemic outcomes. She has been leading efforts to recruit and retain individuals living with or at risk for a condition in clinical trials, through engagement initiatives, her leadership at Stanford Pediatrics, and her role as co-chair of TrialNet's Recruitment Engagement Committee. -
