Great news for Alberta Diabetes member UAlberta Med & Dent

It always amazes me what we can get from an organ donor pancreas with type 1 diabetes. Tremendously valuable for understanding the disease. Massive respect to families that support research. (Reddish staining indicates cells with insulin).

We are thrilled to share the release of a new research strategy for Diabetes Canada. Learn more: ow.ly/XnE350QSzQp #research #enddiabetes

Yesterday was the 25th anniversary of the first #islet #transplant of what came to be known as the Edmonton Protocol. Thanks to the pioneering recipients, donors and supporters. Hoping this takes us closer to a cell therapy for more people with #T1D

Any update on coverage for #insulin pumps or #CGM in #Alberta ? I had been hoping we might be keeping up with Nova Scotia and catching up to Manitoba

Surprise! Feeling energized (not tired) after a day of back-to-back presentations! 🌟 Started my morning with an in person talk at McGill, and joined the virtual Alberta (University of Alberta ) in the afternoon. Grateful for the opportunities to share and connect with so many amazing minds!

Looking forward to another year impacting younger lives with #t1d and their families
