The field of diabetes research is evolving rapidly, from stem cell therapies to addressing inequities in care. In this EASD TV interview, Vivienne Parry sits with Prof. Hindrik Mulder, Editor-in-Chief of Diabetologia, as he shares his insights into the most exciting developments in diabetes research, the latest issue of Diabetologia, and the launch of a new sister journal, Metabologia.

Highlights include:
- Stem cell therapies for diabetes: Exploring hypoimmune approaches that could enable scalable, off-the-shelf islet transplantation.
- Heterogeneity and disparities: Understanding the diversity in diabetes biology and addressing inequities in care worldwide.
- Patient perspectives: Incorporating lived experiences into research and clinical study design.
- Diabetes research trends: From prize lectures to rising stars, uncovering emerging science and innovations.
- Metabolologia: A new journal expanding beyond diabetes to cover broader metabolic disorders.

This discussion underscores the importance of curiosity, inclusivity, and embracing complexity in advancing diabetes science.
