Drs. Frances Ashcroft and Barbara Corkey join us to discuss the new paper, "Metabolic Cycles and Signals for Insulin Secretion". The paper challenges a key aspect of the "canonical" model.

Arthur D. Riggs, Ph.D., the world-renowned diabetes expert who developed the technology that led to the first human synthetic insulin for the treatment of diabetes, died March 23 after battling cancer. A biotechnology pioneer and a longtime leader at City of Hope, Riggs’ major scientific discoveries were achieved over more than a half-century of research, paving the way for development of the monoclonal antibody therapies that are the foundation of modern treatments for cancer, autoimmune diseases, blindness and a host of other diseases.

His breakthrough work in diabetes enabled mass production of insulin for people living with the disease. Today, synthetic insulin is used by hundreds of millions of people.

He was 82.
