Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by progressive destruction of the pancreatic beta cells, leading to a lifelong dependence on insulin. It is associated with an increased morbidity and mortality from diabetes-related complications and a significant treatment burden. However, there has been substantial progress in therapeutic strategies that can affect the course of the disease.
