This is the centenary of the discovery of insulin.

The science journal Nature allows a leisurely scroll through a timeline highlighting key advances that have occurred in diabetes research over the past 100 years--the development of synthetic insulin, new drug classes and technologies for the management of diabetes.

It includes video, related articles, Nobel awards, diabetes in sub-Saharan Africa, even a note on COVID-19 risk and diabetes. 

Twenty-four milestones.
