It was inspiring to learn about patient-oriented research projects as we work on the implementation of the National Framework for Diabetes in Canada.

Insulin was discovered by Frederick Banting, Charles Best & JJR Macleod in 1921. It was first used to treat a patient with diabetes on 11 January 1922. Almost 100 years later and access to insulin is still not a reality for many worldwide. This is why we the fight. Join us!

99 years ago on this day in 1922, the first injection of insulin was given to 14-year old Leonard Thompson at Toronto General Hospital by Sir Frederick Banting's team.

Insulin has helped millions of people manage their diabetes, but it is not a cure.

@hdcouto23 #womeninmedicine Sadly, we all have daily experiences with this. I hope many if our male colleagues are reading this thread.

@paimadhu None. Even if he wins, this election is a moral loss on all sides.

[Julia von Oettingen @jvonoettingen]

Inspiring keynote - we can all learn from inspiring global health advocates like @DrSenait !

@JDRF_Canada @DiabetesCanada This is an amazing resource. We’ve posted it on our hospital website @HopitalChildren and sent it out to all our patients & families! Thanks so much!

JDRF-Funded researchers at McGill University are the first to test the addition of a hormone co-secreted with insulin to an artificial pancreas system to achieve optimal glucose control during the day. https://t.co/uueDUfVnz4

@DreJoanneLiu Je suis pédiatre endocrinologue. Tous nos équipes à l’Hopital pour Enfants travaillent fort pour maintenir notre mandat: assurer les soins des enfants malades - qui ont besoin de nous, COVID ou pas.

Dr Forget: Il y a des médecins spécialistes super engagés qui font beaucoup de choses en ce moment et je les vois sur le terrain se dévouer. C’est dommage que le leadership médical envoie le mauvais message à la population.

I’m on call at the hospital this week caring for the kids who need medical care whether Corona is around or not. Like my Haitian colleagues are saying: help us help you and STAY HOME. Say it with Queens Bohemian Rhapsody. https://t.co/djpxyujGlz

Campagne lancée par ma nièce et son école: le mouvement #coeursjaunes appelle à une réflexion courageuse et créative sur la #liberté, la #solidarité et la #démocratie aux temps de Corona. Envoyez-vous des coeurs jaunes: signe de relations interpersonnelles et d'optimisme!
