- Abstract
The article offers information about the beta-Cell research discussed at the International Group on Insulin Secretion (IGIS) Symposium held on 26-29 March 2009, in St Jean Cap Ferrat, France. IGIS was formed for the study of beta-cell dysfunction of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and has reported that T2D does not develop until beta-cells fail. Information about the progress made in islet research and beta-cell dysfunction over the last decade and methods adopted to fight diabetes is presented.
