European Islet Study Group 2025

The European Islet Study Group is a conference for islet biology in diabetes research. Organised yearly since 1991, EISG gathers leading European and international islet researchers in the field of diabetes. 

The objective of EISG is to facilitate the exchange and development of ideas that might push forward groundbreaking research related to diabetes diagnosis, pathology, and treatment, and the role that islet cells play in the disease.
