Parth's research interest focusses on understanding the autoimmune destruction of insulin secreting beta cells that lead to type 1 diabetes and exploring how this process can be modulated. He is part of a national effort to explore the feasibility and acceptability of early surveillance programmes for pre-type 1 diabetes and is also exploring which therapies are best tested in the prevention arena. He has developed an international reputation for exploring whether exercise can be used to modulate the autoimmune process in type 1 diabetes. He is the Chair of the MS Prevention Taskforce for the Multiple Sclerosis Society to explore treatment parallels across other conditions with similarities to type 1 diabetes. Parth leads the Diabetes Research Unit and the Type 1 Diabetes clinical service at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
