1. A method to derive a population of pancreatic endocrine precursor cells from pluripotent stem cells comprising the steps of: a. Culturing a population of pluripotent stem cells;b. Differentiating the population of pluripotent stem cells into a population of cells expressing markers characteristic of the definitive endoderm lineage by culturing the pluripotent stem cells in a medium supplemented with GDF-8 and a GSK3B inhibitor;c. Differentiating the population of cells expressing markers characteristic of the definitive endoderm lineage into a population of primitive gut tube cells;d. Differentiating the population of primitive gut tube cells into a population of posterior foregut cells; ande. Treating the population of posterior foregut cells with a medium supplemented with a CYP26A inhibitor and with no added retinoic acid such that the population of posterior foregut cells differentiates into a population of pancreatic endocrine precursor cells, wherein expression of endocrine precursor markers is increased and wherein the differentiating in steps b., c. and d. comprises treatment in a medium lacking a CPY26A inhibitor. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the GSK3B inhibitor is 14-Prop-2-en-1-yl-3,5,7,14,17,23,27-heptaazatetracyclo[19.3.1.1˜2,6˜0.1˜8,12˜]heptacosa-1(25),2(27),3,5,8(26),9,11,21,23-nonaen-16-one. 3.
