Dr Victoria Salem will use state-of-the-art bioprinting techniques. 🧡 She’ll ‘print’ a jelly-like protective barrier that will shield new beta cells from the immune system’s attack. 2/5

Representation of the population with #T1Diabetes is only as difficult as you make it It’s not “wokery” It’s called representation And in events I am part of? That’s how it works @RCPhysicians People are as “difficult to reach” as you make it 👊🏽 #TAD2023 #gbdoc #T1D

As European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) uses the Convention to prevent refugees being sent to Rwanda, remember this ECHR has nothing to do with the EU & Brexit Convention was proposed by Churchill & drafted by mainly British lawyers to fight fascism if Johnson’s Govt withdraws..

Amazing. A patient advocate has been granted the @WhiteHouse twitter account for a day to highlight the problem of high prescription drug costs. Thanks @POTUS Insulin prices reflect what's wrong in our pricing system better than any other drug. Let's fix it. Thanks Gail deVore!
Hi, I'm Gail — a mom, business owner, and Type 1 diabetic. Today I'm taking over the White House Twitter to talk about the cost of prescription drugs and the toll it takes on millions of Americans, myself included. If you'd like to follow along, I'll be signing my tweets "-GdV"
