2020 JDRF Research Road Tour
Event Information
Description
The road to a cure and improving lives has seen exciting advances in the past 18 months.
Highlights:
- A drug that delays progression of T1D by at least two years
- Newly developed beta cells that produce much higher levels of insulin
- 1+ regulatory approvals in ~ 1 year!
- Commercialization of the second ever artificial pancreas system
- And many, many more!
JDRF is taking its team of Research Information Volunteers (RIVs) on the road to share these updates to the Southwest Ohio community. Join us at one of the Research Road Tour stops to hear how JDRF is laser focused on curing T1D and mission-driven to improving lives today. This event is free and open to everyone impacted by T1D. Light refreshments will be provided.
