The 9th Korea-Japan Symposium on Diabetes Mellitus, held in Korea, 11-12 April 1997 promoted the scientific achievement and friendship between the two countries. Recently diabetes research has advanced remarkably, especially in the fields of pathogenesis and management, contributing to the understanding of pathophysiology and the proper management of diabetes mellitus. Hence the reason that the title "Recent Advances on the Pathogenesis and Management" was selected as the main theme for the symposium, and consequently the title of this book.
