The science and circumstances behind the Lilly-Alkermes decision to discontinue trials of the AIR- inhaled insulin product are explored in a special supplement to Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics, a peer-reviewed journal published by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. (www.liebertpub.com). The supplement is available free online at www.liebertpub.com/dia
