title: The stages of type 1A diabetes.
abstract: We can now predict the development of type 1 diabetes in man because it is a chronic autoimmune disorder with defined stages of disease. We can also readily prevent the disorder in animal models. A major goal is safe prevention in man, and for this we will almost certainly need a better understanding of pathogenesis, coupled with rigorous clinical trials.
