Diabetes (type 1) treatment
July 23, 2024

Our type 1 diabetes treatment is not yet available. We plan on having a psychoimmunology treatment ready in 2025. If you are interested in being put on a waiting list for treatment in the future once our treatment is ready, please phone us during office hours, or email us.



Research history
This project started by accident in 2010, when one of our new students who had type 1 diabetes (T1D) volunteered to be a research subject. Academically, this project was particularly interesting to us as, if successful, it would clearly demonstrate the efficacy of our PI approach without any possibility of doubt. However, we knew this was going to be a very difficult disease to tackle, since we would have to first understand the underlying autoimmune mechanism, something that is not at all understood biologically.

In 2021, Mary Pellicer MD gave a talk on our T1D research up to that point:
