Every major T1D breakthrough started with research ๐Ÿ’™

The insulin therapies, diabetes technology, and emerging treatments helping people live healthier lives with type 1 diabetes (T1D) today only became possible through clinical trials and the individuals and families who chose to participate.

On International Clinical Trials Day, weโ€™re celebrating the researchers, healthcare professionals, and trial participants helping drive progress toward better T1D treatments and cures ๐Ÿ’™

With more than 300 active T1D clinical trials, there are more opportunities than ever to help shape the future of T1D care and research ๐Ÿ”ฌ
