Welcome

The Clinical Islet Transplantation (CIT) Consortium is a network of clinical centers and a data coordinating center established in 2004 to conduct studies of islet transplantation in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Studies conducted by the CIT Consortium will focus on improving the safety and long-term success of methods for transplanting islets, the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas, in people whose own islets have been destroyed by the autoimmune process that characterizes type 1 diabetes.

The network includes the following centers:

University of Miami
Miami, Florida		 University of Minnesota
Minneapolis, Minnesota
University of Pennsylvania
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania		 Emory University
Atlanta, Georgia
Northwestern University
