Summary of Work
Glucagon is canonically viewed as an essential counterregulatory hormone that prevents hypoglycemia by driving

endogenous glucose production (EGP) in the liver. We and others have revealed additional roles for glucagon

that emphasize a much more complex control of metabolism beyond hypoglycemia. For instance, glucagon is a

potent…
