I'm not sure what this is hoping to accomplish. Coming up with a lab method to make insulin is about 5% of the way to providing actual insulin for patients.
You'd still need to: 1) develop a scaleable process [pilot plant], 2) have a robust enough analytical process to make sure you're not killing anyone, 3) have a reproducible process so that each dose is the same.
