For centuries, a diagnosis of diabetes was practically a death sentence; there were simply no effective treatments for the disease. But in 1923, everything changed: A ground-breaking collaboration between Lilly scientists and University of Toronto researchers led to the discovery and development of the world’s first commercially available insulin.
