U.S. FDA Approves First Artificial Pancreas Outpatient Trial

advocacy in action

Did you hear the great news about the first artificial pancreas outpatient trial in the U.S. being
approved by the FDA? I hope so and I also hope you can help ensure that progress
like the artificial pancreas continues to improve the lives of those with diabetes by simply
sending an email to your members of Congress. We need you to send an email to your
legislators asking them to sign on to a letter acknowledging the important research
contributions made by the Special Diabetes Program.

The impact JDRF Advocacy can have on diabetes issues is only as strong as the support
we receive from you, as a T1D advocate. Once you take action, please be sure to tell
your family and friends and share this link (http://bit.ly/xUq1Dc) to the action page on
your favorite social media sites!

Oh, when you’re done taking action, you can get more information about the trial at
JDRF Blog Post.
