In summary, the diagnosis of diabetes has become very complicated. It is hoped that as we unlock the human genome, additional forms of previously thought autoimmune type 1 diabetes will be discovered along with new forms of therapy. Insulin was only discovered in the early 1920s (see diabetes quiz) and has been around less than 100 years. Just look at what has been discovered in the last five years! Who knows what will be revealed in the next five years?
