Fr1da Daten Analyse

• Pilot study to test the hypothesis that the frequency of 127-hi Th2, and levels of expression of Th2-associated genes correlates with the speed of disease progression before diabetes onset in children participating in the Fr1da-study. (Prof. Dr. Joanna Davis, Ballad Research Institute, San Diego, UK)
