It's worth noting that a major caveat to this result pointed out in this article is that the woman is presently on immunosuppressants from a liver transplant, thus we don't yet know the risks that the body's immune system could just, after the transplant, do the same thing that causes T1D in the first place, which is attack and destroy the islets in the pancreas which produce insulin.
Still an absolutely fascinating result, and hopefully more data over the coming years gives us a better understanding of how this works over the long term.
Sounds like there's a lot of money to be made for finding ways to ensure that your body does not attack the stem cells that are generated from your own body.

I wonder if the process they use to make the covid shots could help?
The tricky part about T1 is... We don't know why the immune system is malfunctioning, only that it is. Without that vital piece of research, everything that presents as a cure is temporary at best.
Dr. Faustman out of Mass General has been conducting some trials into phase two or three using the BCG vaccine to treat / cure the immune response.
