About: The prevention, treatment, and cure for type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is predominately diagnosed in young children, is an autoimmune disease with no known cure, and impacts the person diagnosed and their families 24/7 as they are insulin dependent and face life threatening complications daily.
