Celebrating the centenary of insulin discovery - where next?

This event has ended.

Insulin is an amazing hormone that that is indispensable for maintaining metabolism and is essential to life.  When the cells in the body producing insulin are damaged by the immune system, people develop Type 1 diabetes.

We highlight the scientific developments that have led to 3 Nobel prizes since insulin was discovered, and with increased knowledge and understanding, as well as new technology, how life has changed for people who have Type 1 diabetes.

How will our present knowledge shape the future for people who live with Type 1 diabetes, and what will the future hold for treatment or cure?
