Towards a cure: Insulin100 scientific conference draws world’s leading diabetes researchers
Patient stories. Innovative diabetes therapies. A peek inside the bedroom of one of the scientists who discovered insulin at the University of Toronto.
Those were just a few highlights of U of T’s recent Insulin100 Scientific Symposium, which drew more than 6,000 attendees from around the world.
The two-day scientific symposium commemorated the 100th anniversary of the discovery of insulin in a U of T laboratory – and was preceded by a public celebration one day earlier that featured stirring videos from diabetes patients across the globe who spoke about the role of insulin in their lives.
