President’s Viewpoint

Many of us are now fully back at our day job having returned from last month’s ENDO in Boston. The meeting was a fabulous success. There was such a buzz around the conference center, where friends and colleagues, old and new, met to discuss the very best in science and clinical practice. Congratulations and a...

A year seems to go by quickly in today’s fast-paced world, but the Endocrine Society always manages to accomplish a huge amount in that trip around the sun! Even the recent total eclipse of said sun did not slow us down! As I reflect on my soon-to-conclude presidential tenure, I’m amazed at the sheer number...

I am honored to work with a Society that prioritizes access to care for all people who need it, including those living with diabetes and women with infertility, and one that advocates for legislation such as the Global Plastics Treaty to lower our everyday exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs).

The start of a new year offers an ideal time to reflect on our career goals and what we need to do to achieve them. As your professional home, the Endocrine Society offers a myriad of opportunities to help build your CV and advance your career. This is an ideal time to register for our...

More than 100 years after the discovery of insulin galvanized our field, diabetes research and care remain a central part of endocrinology. Diabetes Awareness Month offers the opportunity to reflect on the importance of our research and clinical care to millions of people around the globe. For the 540 million people worldwide living with diabetes,...

Like many of you, one factor that sparked my love of endocrine science and clinical care was observing firsthand my mentors’ passion for the subject.  In fact, I can say without a doubt that a month on the inpatient service at the San Francisco VA Hospital with Dolores Shoback was the turning point that steered...
