Originally from Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, she obtained both her hBSc and PhD at the University of Toronto. Kacey is interested in understanding the molecular basis for how circulating factors influence insulin secretion, and how these may contribute to beta cell dysfunction and the development of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Dr. Prentice is now an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology at the University of Toronto and seeks to continue defining how the circulating protein aP2 may influence these pathways.
