We were thrilled to celebrate exciting advances in type 1 diabetes research at the 18th Annual Spring Research Briefing on April 13 at the Boston Marriott Newton.

Featured Speakers:
Julia Greenstein, PhD, Vice President, Discovery Research, JDRF
Peter Gottlieb, MD, Professor of Pediatrics and Medicine, Barbara Davis Center, University of Colorado School of Medicine

Dr. Greenstein presented an update on JDRF-funded research and Dr. Gottlieb presented his work in immunology of type 1 diabetes, intervention trials to prevent or reverse type 1 diabetes, islet transplantation and the genetics of autoimmune disease.

Our ability to sustain meaningful progress in bringing life-changing therapies from the lab to the community continues thanks to your ongoing support. You can continue to help us move toward our vision of creating a world without T1D by being part of our 35th Annual Boston Gala. 100% of the funds raised during the Fund A Cure portion of the Gala will be directed toward T1D research projects like those mentioned above.
