Abstract
In this issue of Science Translational Medicine, El-Khatib et al. describe a "closed-loop" bihormonal artificial pancreas, designed to avert episodes of low blood sugar in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes. We discuss the benefits and challenges of therapy directed at tight control of blood glucose and ask whether this and similar technological breakthroughs can address as yet unanswered questions in the biology of diabetes.
