Sorting Through Type 1.5 Diabetes

Join Dr. Watts this week as he opens up a new series on serving patients with type 1.5 diabetes. Type 1.5 diabetes, or Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA), is a slow-progressing form of autoimmune diabetes that shares characteristics of both Type 1 and Type 2.

While there is a lot of mystery and even some confusion around these cases, he’ll bring in the relevant medical literature and start to map out mechanisms and a way forward for this patient population.
