SESSION OVERVIEW
This session will explore beta-cell dysfunction, preservation, and recovery in diabetes, integrating clinical features in Asian type 2 diabetes, glucocentric strategies for beta-cell preservation, and emerging quantitative imaging approaches to stress-adaptive beta-cell remodeling. The session will highlight how mechanistic insights can be translated into more precise strategies to restore beta-cell health and alter the trajectory of diabetes.
