Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to some of our most common questions, from the basics about T1D to questions on participating in a research study.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D)

If you live in the United States, it takes 4-6 weeks to get your screening results. Outside of the US, it takes a little longer to allow for shipping. TrialNet forwards all samples from screenings and studies to specialized laboratories across the US. This way, all samples are processed in a consistent way, meeting strict requirements for scientific research. The process takes a little longer, but it's an important step to ensuring that you receive the most accurate results.
