Producing Beta Cells: Generation of Pancreatic islets from Stem Cells
Show notes
Watch the full video on YouTube to join experts Prof. Raphael Scharfmann (INSERM, France) and Valeria Sordi (San Raffaele Diabetes Research Institute, Italy) as they explore the future of beta cell replacement therapies in diabetes.
They discuss the progress made in generating stem cell–derived beta cells, how insights from developmental biology have shaped clinical protocols, and the latest updates from ongoing clinical trials and translational research. They also examine the key challenges still facing the field, including immune rejection, long-term cell survival, and the complexities of scaling up production for widespread clinical use.
