Anne Gresch & Martina Düfer on resolving spatiotemporal electrical signaling within the islet, Delnaz Roshandel on the genetics of C-peptide and age, and a Sweet Talk history lesson with Jeffrey Flier & Christopher Newgard

Welcome to the March 2025 episode of DiabetesBio—the American Diabetes Association's podcast for its flagship research publication, Diabetes. In this episode of DiabetesBio, Drs. Kirk Habegger, Darleen Sandoval, and Kevin Williams discuss the latest and greatest content in the March 2025 issue of Diabetes.

3:20 In the first interview segment, our hosts discuss the Paper of the Month, "Resolving Spatiotemporal Electrical Signaling Within the Islet via CMOS Microelectrode Arrays." They're joined by Anne Gresch, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Colorado's Anschutz Medical Campus, and Prof. Dr. Martina Düfer, from the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Munster Pharmaceutical and Medicinal Chemistry in Munster, Germany. This article is available for free at doi.org/10.2337/db23-0870.

22:40 Our hosts discuss an article from the February issue of Diabetes, entitled "Genetics of C-Peptide and Age at Diagnosis in Type 1 Diabetes." They're joined by lead author Delnaz Roshandel, PhD, Senior Research Associate, and Andrew Paterson, MD, both of the Genetics and Genome Biology Program at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada. This article is available for free at doi.org/10.2337/db24-0340.

36:20 In the special edition of "Sweet Talk," our hosts welcome Jeffrey S Flier, MD, former Dean of Harvard Medical School and past recipient of the ADA's Banting Medal, as well as Christopher Bang Newgard, PhD, leader in pancreatic islet biology and metabolic disease at Duke University School of Medicine and previous recipient of the ADA's Outstanding Scientific Achievement Award. They discuss an article by Diabetes editor-in-chief, David A. D'Alessio, on the historic development of the insulin radioimmunoassay, available for free at doi.org/10.2337/dbi24-0055.
