Our new research article 🔬 suggests that the maturity of the pancreas at onset of type 1 diabetes may hold the key to understanding why the disease course differs in early vs later life 📈. Watch our video to learn more! Produced in collaboration with @amanigardner.bsky.social youtu.be/O-Q0e5rEUy4

Small things really do matter in type 1 diabetes. Exciting work from the Exeter SMF Grand Challenge team provides important insights into why #T1D in children may differ from T1D in adults. Important implications for screening strategies and future treatments. Check out our new bioRxiv paper 👇
