I just received this and thought I’d pass the information along:
We continue to seek relatives of those with Type 1 diabetes for the TrialNet Natural History Study. This study is the gate keeper for all of the TrialNet Type 1 diabetes prevention studies. Currently we are recruiting eligible relatives for the Oral Insulin Prevention Trial, and other prevention studies are just around the corner. I know most of you have had your relatives screened already, but if you know of others who would be eligible, please let them know about the study
For those that live near Stanford or who are in the Central California area, please see
