A team of researchers from Queen’s University Belfast has successfully grown in a laboratory a model version of human blood vessels from people with diabetes.
The breakthrough advances research of the disease by providing a new way for scientists to study how diabetes impacts blood vessels, potentially leading to the development of new treatments.
