Challenging the Misconception That T1D Is a Childhood-Onset Disease

Host: John Buse, MD, PhD Guest: Michael Fang, PhD According to a recent study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine , the median age of patients with type 1 diabetes is 24. However, type 1 diabetes that develops in adulthood is often mistakenly identified as type 2 diabetes, resulting in improper treatment.
