We’re thrilled to welcome Jude Restis, a longtime Breakthrough T1D (Formerly JDRF) volunteer and advocate, who will share the latest advancements in T1D research. Jude has been living with T1D since 1972 and was recently awarded the Joslin 50-Year Medal. With a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering and 35 years of experience in the aerospace industry, he brings a unique perspective to the conversation. Jude has served on the National JDRF Research Committee for the artificial pancreas project, is a member of the JDRF Speakers Bureau, and currently sits on the Greater Northwest Board of Directors. He has been a Research Information Volunteer since the program’s inception, a Clinical Trials Education Volunteer, and a dedicated cycling coach for the Breakthrough T1D Ride program since 2005.

During this session, Jude will discuss how groundbreaking clinical trials and innovative therapies are accelerating progress toward cures and improving life with T1D.
