IDS 2026 Symposium Summary
In this panel Prof. Chantal Mathieu facilitated the discussion with Prof. Ezio Bonifacio, Prof. Thomas Kay, and Prof. John Wentworth. The speakers discussed biomarker-driven type 1 diabetes care, focusing on screening, diagnosis, and monitoring using autoantibodies, C-peptide, and glucose metrics. The panel highlighted the importance of early detection and risk stratification, reviewed immune-targeted therapies and emerging technologies, and emphasized key decision points supporting personalized, biomarker-guided T1D management.

Islet autoantibodies as biomarkers of progression to clinical T1D
Prof Bonifacio discusses the predictive value and utility of islet autoantibodies as biomarkers of the risk and rate of progression to clinical T1D
Composite risk scores as tools for improved T1D risk prediction
Prof. Wentworth discusses how T1D risk prediction can be improved through the development of tools that integrate multiple risk factors and biomarkers
Immune dysregulation in T1D: biomarkers and therapeutic targets
Profs. Kay and Bonifacio discuss the role of T-cell dysregulation as a central pathophysiological mechanism in T1D, and its implications for emerging therapies and biomarkers
ATTD 2026 Symposium Summary
In this panel Prof. Alice Cheng facilitated a comprehensive discussion with Drs. Sanjoy Dutta, Jeremy Pettus, Jessica Melin, Karin Lange and Renuka Dias. Through role-played scenarios, the speakers explored the T1D care journey from screening and diagnosis to monitoring and management, highlighting the real-world disease burden and the critical importance of early detection. The panel also reviewed current technologies and key decision points that enable effective T1D care.

Early Detection in Pediatric Populations
Learn why early detection of T1D in children matters, how it reduces DKA risk and supports timely intervention.
Early Detection of Type 1 Diabetes in Adults
Learn why early detection of T1D in adults matters, why T1D is often missed in dysglycemic adults, its misclassification as T2D, and how islet autoantibody testing supports accurate diagnosis, staging, and timely management.
Education and Psychosocial Support After T1D Diagnosis – ATTD 2026
The video discusses the management of patient anxiety after positive T1D islet autoantibody results: Guidance on monitoring, education, and psychosocial support.
Technology Advances and the Persistent Burden of T1D – ATTD 2026
The video discusses how advances in insulin delivery have yet to translate into improved population-level glycemic outcomes
The Growing Global Burden of T1D
The video discusses the rising T1D burden: Adult-onset misclassification, familial risk, and autoimmune comorbidities impacting diagnosis and management.
Type 1 Diabetes in Adults
Dr Jeremy Pettus explains how to identify type 1 diabetes (T1D) in adults, avoid misclassification as type 2 diabetes (T2D), and interpret islet autoantibodies (IAbs) and C-peptide to support diagnosis and staging.
Pathophysiology of Early-Stage Type One Diabetes
Explore the complex autoimmune cascade that leads to beta cell destruction and development of type 1 diabetes.
