Insulin—one of the greatest medical achievements of all time. Yet, its centenary year is marred by persisting inequity in access.

Type 1 #diabetes is characterised by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β-cell mass.

Insulin's centenary is worthy of celebration—but blood glucose control with #insulin in people with #diabetes remains nearly universally suboptimal.

100 years ago, #insulin was discovered—today, it is inaccessible for millions.
The Lancet journals reflect on this life-saving treatment and the "golden opportunity to improve access to insulin and #diabetes care" the centenary represents: hubs.li/H0Rp3p40 #Insulin100⬇️

The discovery of insulin ranks among the leading triumphs of medical research, with effects on #endocrinology, #medicine, and society that reverberate 100 years later.

Although insulin has changed the lives of countless people with #diabetes, writes David Beran et al, the time for celebration has not yet arrived due to the absence of concrete action on #insulin access.

Thrilled to participate in today’s @PMTC2021 conference and talk about meeting students where they are at (figuratively and literally). My research ranges from #bioarchaeology to #MedHist (bones to books) and I love bringing theatre to the classroom! #PandemicMethodologies
My greatest insecurity preparing for teaching in Fall 2020 was how to create a sense of community in the classroom for a course that had never before been delivered online. Summer 2020 reading: #MOOCs! #CourseDesign! #Tech! #UniversalDesign! #Stress! #PandemicMethodologies
Reimagining “Intro to Anthro of Health” required boldness. I looked to @DanielPaulOD’s unessay (tinyurl.com/4b2uezvv): to throw out the rules of essay writing and welcome speculative work. This semester was the right one to take a risk. #PandemicMethodologies
1/4 My statement highlights the 100th anniversary of the discovery of #insulin @UofT, reminding us of our great achievements and continuing challenges as the global public health burden of diabetes increases, exacerbated by inequities. canada.ca/en/public-heal…
2/4 Those who experience social and economic inequities face a higher risk of developing diabetes and other chronic diseases, which puts them at greater risk of severe illness from #COVID19 in Canada and worldwide.
3/4 Equity matters - we must do more to support communities disproportionately affected by #ChronicDiseases & #COVID19. It is also important for individuals to reduce their risk by being physically active, eating well, and not smoking.
From melancholic to optimistic! Nobel Laureate Frederick G. Banting showed the world how patients with #diabetes benefit from insulin use, to live a happier and better life. #100InsulinStories

Before 1921, for people with diabetes, the prospects were grim. Listen and see what it was like for patients who received insulin and had their lives saved. A thread. 👇

Inspiration for insulin struck Dr. Frederick Banting in the middle of the night in Oct 1920 after he’d prepared a lecture on the pancreas – the organ responsible for producing the hormone. Almost 100yrs has passed since the discovery of insulin at @UofT 2/17
Once unknown scientists, Drs. Frederick Banting & Charles Best have since become household names in Canada. What’s less familiar is how life has changed for people with diabetes due to insulin. 3/17
