Lipoprotein Kinetics in T1D

Description

The purpose of this research study is to understand how type 1 diabetes (T1D) increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases (heart attack and stroke). To this end, the investigators will compare apolipoprotein and triglyceride kinetics in people wtih T1D and healthy control participants.
