ISLETLAB

The McGill University Health Centre Human Islet Transplant Laboratory (MHITL) is a unique resource in the field of diabetes research and innovation. Located in the McGill University and Genome Québec Innovation Centre in Montréal, Québec, this state-of-the-art facility provides highly purified preparations of insulin-producing Islets of Langerhans from donated human pancreases under expressed research consent. This vital material is used in novel clinical applications for the treatment of type 1 diabetics, as well as for fundamental research projects studying all forms of diabetes. It is our aim to expand both the clinical and research networks of the MHITL to achieve the fullest potential of our program.
