Approximately 25 million people worldwide, many of them children, suffer from type 1 diabetes. There is currently no cure for diabetes and those affected with this disease must endure daily insulin injections for the duration of their lives. This animation illustrates how insulin is normally produced in the body and how its production is destroyed in this disease.

Hi James, I like the website you made on blogspot. Very simple and informative. For this video you should cite the creators, Etsuko Uno and Drew Berry, over at WEHI. I just realized they have the video up on youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYvav8aDGCc
Grab their embed code and you're all set.
Keep up the great work!

Hello. I am a 11th grade high school student. I am currently studying diabetes, and much of my data is exactly modeled by your excellent video. Is it possible for me to embed this video in my Google Sites blog? You would be properly cited, and would help spread word of this impressive collection of videos. If you could get me the embed code, it would be a great help.

Thanks.
