Brief description Type 2 diabetes (T2D) affects 7% of Australians and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. A failure of insulin secretion contributes to T2D, and this is linked to the inability of insulin producing ?-cells to use lipids appropriately (lipotoxicity). Here we will study the role of the immune system and how this inhibits insulin secretion in T2D
