Type 2 diabetes (T2D) had long been referred to as the geneticist's nightmare.'' Genome-wide association studies have fully confirmed the polygenic nature of T2D, demonstrating the role of many genes in T2D risk. The increasingly busier picture of T2D genetics is quite difficult to understand for the diabetes research community, which can create misunderstandings with geneticists, and can eventually limit both basic research and translational outcomes of these genetic discoveries. The present review wishes to lift the fog around genetics of T2D with the hope that it will foster integrated diabetes modeling approaches from genetic defects to personalized medicine.
