Abstract

The Canadian Frederick Banting (1891-1941), in discovering the existence of insulin, was able to treat, for the first time, with efficiency, diabetic patients. This discovery and its application did not happen easily, in particular within his own team. In 1922, the Nobel Prize would reward this researcher, who died two decades later in an airplane crash.<br /> (Copyright 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)
