As ENDO 2016 winds down and we continue to celebrate the Society’s Centennial throughout the year, we now need to focus on new initiatives for the second century of the Endocrine Society.
Over the next decades, we are likely to see more of today’s exciting developments in basic endocrine science making their way into the clinic. Understanding of the molecular cell biology of endocrine disease will advance, and human studies will take advantage of routine genomic sequencing of individuals and use of personalized stem cells. We should be able to focus on the root causes of the autoimmune diseases and the benign tumors that cause most endocrine disease.
As we move into a new century, the Endocrine Society will be at the forefront of sharing and promoting the science of its members. Start making your plans now to join us next April in Orlando for ENDO 2017. In the meantime, we welcome your guidance on how the Society can provide the richest experience for you.
