We present a new model for islet formation that accounts for the morphological transformation from embryonic endocrine cord-like structures into distinct spherical islets of various sizes observed in the adult pancreas.

The results from the quantification of beta-cell proliferation and islet development as well as mathematical analysis on the growth regulation has led us to propose a fission model for islet formation in the developing pancreas.
