Collaboration with our research and clinical partners is key to the Center's vision.  Translational research on the immunology of type 1 diabetes at the La Jolla Institute's Type 1 Diabetes Center will be linked to the Pediatric Diabetes Research Center at UCSD, which comprises crucial clinical activities and cutting edge research on beta cell biology.  The Center's collaborators also include The Brehm Coalition, the Sanford Consortium, Clinical Services at UCSD VA Hospital (Taking Control Of Your Diabetes) and Rady Children's Hospital, among othersl.  Our key collaborators are acknowledged below.
