We will be attending the Diabetes UK 2025 conference, held in Glasgow at the end of February. We look forward to sharing our fantastic research with colleagues throughout the UK.
Over 8000 participants have been recruited so far!
Thank you to everyone who has taken part. So far approximately 75% of our participants are women! We would love more men and people from diverse ethnic backgrounds to sign up so that our research can more accurately reflect the UK population. Please help spread the word.

- Since launching in November 2023, we’ve now reached over 6000 participants signed up to T1DRA!
During this time, the team has been working hard to send out kits, test thousands of blood samples and get the results out to each participant, with some participants now being involved in further tests such as urine, HbA1c and mouth brush samples.
This is fantastic progress for the study and already generating a lot of really interesting data on autoantibodies in the general population. But we still have a long way to go to hit our target of 20,000 people. With this in mind, we’ve teamed up with SciTube to create the following outreach video, to explain more about what T1DRA is and how people can get involved.
- We are pleased to announce that we are now open for recruitment!
We are the worlds first research study to screen adults in the general population for type 1 diabetes.
