# Daniel J. Drucker

> Daniel Joshua Drucker is a Canadian endocrinologist renowned for his breakthrough discoveries of the biological actions of glucagon-like peptides GLP-1 and GLP-2, including GLP-1's key role in stimulating glucose-dependent insulin secretion, reducing food intake, protecting the heart, and reducing systemic inflammation. His scientific research has been a driving force in GLP-1's journey from a newly discovered peptide sequence to the mechanism behind globally used and life-changing therapeutics for type 2 diabetes and obesity. It has also driven transformative new therapeutics for intestinal failure and other metabolic disorders. A Fellow of the Royal Society, and laureate of the 2023 Wolf Prize in Medicine, he is a University Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto and Senior Investigator at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute, Sinai Health, Toronto.
