there are some trials of insulin pills, although i have no idea how they gonna manage that..insulin is a protein, it's not suppose to pass the digestive system whole. the future holds hope for that- ultrasonic injections may be able to inject insulin painlessly in the future.
Cell transplantation, the process by which insulin-producing cells from non-diabetics are transferred to diabetics have been tried and tested throughout the world, and the process is getting better and better.
and there's that machine that injects insulin throughout the day. don't remember the name...
