Nous remercions INESSS pour la qualité de leur travail dans l’évaluation de la transplantation d’îlots. Nous félicitons leur recommendation de financer publiquement cette procedure. Nous sommes enthousiastes d’offrir ce traitement à un plus grand nombre de Québécois.
L'INESSS a récemment rendu public son avis "Transplantation des îlots de Langerhans chez les personnes atteintes d'un diabète de type 1 instable". Pour connaître nos recommandations : bit.ly/2NaJZZy

Had the privilege of working towards making this happen while with the Royal Victoria Hospital Foundation. Amazing work happening with Dr. Paraskevas and his team @Isletlab👏👏👏 xitter.cf/isletlab/status/936212…
Performed another islet cell transplant @cusm_muhc. Well on our way to offer this procedure to many more T1D. Effectué une autre transplantation d'îlots @cusm_muhc. Bien sur notre chemin pour offrir cette procédure à beaucoup plus de DT1.
