Question

Type 1 diabetes

Please research what is the strongest clinical need – should you test for the Type 1 diabetes disease in a healthy population, should you confirm a diagnosis in someone already suspected to have this disease, or do you need a robust way to measure whether a treatment is working? Or is there a way to prevent this disease progression rather than just treating the symptoms of typre 1 diabetes disease? Once you have settled on the strongest clinical need, please research this topic in more detail.
