Abstract
In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Gribben et al. (2021), using improved lineage-tracing mice and longer chase times, have provided clear evidence of new islet cells forming from the pancreatic ducts in adult mice. Perhaps these data will finally put to rest the controversy over beta cell neogenesis in the adult.
