Beyond the Known: Exploring Novel Islet Autoantibodies
While the four standard islet autoantibodies have been instrumental in identifying 70–90% of T1D cases, significant gaps in our understanding persist. The quest to predict T1D in at-risk individuals before clinical onset remains a major challenge. However, the exploration of novel islet autoantibodies could be the key to unlocking improved early detection and diagnosis—bringing us closer to more precise and timely interventions.
In this RIP presentation, Dr. Xiaofan Jia will take us beyond the known, delving into the exciting realm of novel islet autoantibodies. Join us as we explore how these discoveries could revolutionize our approach to T1D prediction, prevention, and treatment.
When: April 7, 2025, 12 pm to 1 pm
Where: Barbara Davis Center (M20), Level 2, Main Conference Room 2104
