The age of immunotherapy for type 1 diabetes is upon us! Thrilled by the opportunity to contribute to this review led by Remi Creusot @Columbia! #immunologymatters #endt1d sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Sarah was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 6 years old. She is now a @umassmemorial diabetes nurse practitioner. Read her inspiring journey: umassmed.edu/dcoe/diabetes-… #Type1Diabetes #T1D
Join us for the 2025 Rachmiel Levine-Arthur Riggs Diabetes Research Symposium. We have an amazing program this year focusing on type 1 #diabetes. We have also extended the abstract submission deadline to Sept 19. Register and submit your abstract a levinesymposium.com
Drs. David Harlan & Michael Brehm @UMassChan serve as planning committee members for the @cityofhope Diabetes Research Symposium, where the world's top #T1D scientists and junior investigators discuss & debate #type1diabetes research, creating interaction & collaborations.

Big congratulations to @katcmurph on receiving the Michael R. Green Award in Graduate Research! Kat also had her paper accepted this week! Stay tuned for that and more to come from this rising star!
🚨The @SoleimanpourLab is hiring!!! 🚨 If you or someone you know is looking for a post-doctoral position and interested in studying mitochondria and diabetes, please get in touch (or RT)!
A few days ago marked my 10th anniversary as a faculty member at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. I arrived in 2015 as an Assistant Professor, excited but nervous to start my own lab. Today, I’m a Full Professor, reflecting on an incredible decade. 🧵
“The future is bright.” In a NEW episode of Beneath the Surface @UMassChan’s @HarrisVitiligo discusses what lies ahead for the treatment landscape of #vitiligo with host @DrJoelGelfand. #podcast #dermatology Listen now: healio.com/news/dermatolo…
“I believe that genetic modifications of stem cell-derived islets and/or a druggable target is likely to represent a practical cure for type 1 diabetes in the next decade or so. I’m excited by this step, but I still see many hurdles to overcome,” David Harlan, MD, @UMassChan DCOE

Meet Kayla who was diagnosed with #T1D at age nine and doesn't remember life prior. Now a Social Worker in the @umassmemorial pediatric diabetes clinic, many parents are comforted to learn she has #Type1diabetes and has lived what they are experiencing. umassmed.edu/dcoe/diabetes-…
Human pancreatic islets exposed to cytokines alter the way islet cells display antigens to the immune system, according to this Type 1 diabetes research published in @CellReports by @UMassChan scientists. umassmed.edu/dcoe/news/umas…
Type 2 diabetes is often considered a protein misfolding disease. But where are these toxic proteins found? 🤔 🚨In new work out today in @NatMetabolism, we show that mitochondrial protein misfolding (yes mitos🤯) leads to beta cell damage in T2D. 🚨 nature.com/articles/s4225… 1/n
It finally happened! Congrats to @katcmurph and @peura_jessica on officially receiving their F31 fellowships! Very proud of both of you and could not be more deserving. NoA dreams still do come true.

Meet our summer interns in the @BrehmLab. Both juniors on pre-med tracks; Emma (left) at @HighPntStudents is majoring in biology and Spanish; Nithila is a biology & social science major at @nyuniversity Shanghai. They appreciate hands-on experiences and the knowledge gained!
Thank you @Mattel for creating a #Barbie with #Type1Diabetes, wearing a CGM & insulin pump. It was developed in partnership with @BreakthroughT1D to empower children with #T1D to see themselves reflected in their toys. 👋nbcnews.com/health/kids-he…
Thanks to all of my colleagues, both in and out of my department/center/university @JohnsHopkins @HopkinsEngineer @TTECJHU @INBT_JHU, who’ve helped support. It’s an honor to work with and be counted among you. 👊
Megan Orzalli, PhD, assistant professor of medicine at @UMassChan, has received a PATH award from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund: brnw.ch/21wTPeL The $505,000 award will support Dr. Orzalli’s research on the skin’s immune system. #BWFpath @BWFUND @UMass_Medicine
