Tomorrow! I’m going to be speaking in the UCLA virtual islet research group seminar, hosted by @VPoitout !! Will be talking about human islet cell phenotypes in T1D and T2D. Some published data and some new. Was I not supposed to fly to LA for this?? Here’s the info.

Amazing to receive our first ever prep of #T1D donor islets from Alberta Diabetes XX today!! Immensely grateful & excited for what we can learn about survivor beta cells from this rare & precious gift!

All type 1 diabetes researchers, physicians, care givers, and people with lived experience please retweet with important survey. We are halfway to our goal of 2000 responses. We hope the answers will help guide future research. Spread broadly for more diverse respondents.

Very nice and interesting work by Yuval Dor and colleagues on human beta cell senescence! academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar… Of note: P16-high senescent beta cells that accumulate in aging do not have SASP, consistent with our opinion in Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism
