Two Bits from around the DOC.
Both brought to my attention by good friend Ellen Ullman on her Google+ page. She's great at finding news on type 1 and a more importantly a lovely lady. Here's today's Two Bits:
The pancreas as we’ve never seen it before
Professor Ulf Ahlgren and associates at Umea University in Sweden are a leading research team in the world in the development of optical projection tomography. With the aid of this imaging technology, they have now described aspects of how the pancreas develops during embryonic development and how the so-called islets of Langerhans are distributed in the adult organ. The findings are important for the interpretation of modeling systems for diabetes.
