COUNTDOWN is the award-winning magazine published quarterly by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International (JDRF) and is offered free with your donation.
COUNTDOWN offers in-depth analysis about cutting-edge research and new treatments, and also features poignant stories from some of the more than 1 million people who have type 1 (juvenile) diabetes and their families.
As Sandra Puczynski, Ph.D., COUNTDOWN editorial committee co-chair, explained in a recent issue: 
"For more than 15 years, Countdown has been the only magazine to provide an in-depth, coherent presentation of how the needs and lives of people with diabetes intersect with research efforts to cure this debilitating disease.
"At a recent scientific meeting in Australia, I overheard a senior scientist say, 'Countdown is where I turn when I want to know whats going on in diabetes research.' We are happy to be filling this important niche for research, and even more gratified that we can do so in a magazine that provides volunteers, donors, the media, and other nonscientists with access to the same information written in a way that is, we hope, easily understood."
Based on the needs of people with diabetes, and their loved ones, COUNTDOWN focuses on research and its potential to help people with diabetes. It also provides articles on the effects of research on the way people with diabetes must live their lives.
