President’s Viewpoint

We are redoubling our efforts to reach underserved communities by revitalizing our patient engagement initiative. Through our clinical work and research, we are well aware that health disparities have a significant impact on individuals with diabetes and other endocrine conditions. As a community, we are determined to do all we can to break down those...

As president of the Endocrine Society, I understand the challenges in career advancement faced by medical and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, clinical fellows, junior faculty, or early-career investigators, especially as you consider a future in endocrinology. No matter your future position (i.e., basic or clinical research, clinical practice, etc.), funding and recognition are critical to...

It is hard to believe that another year has gone by in this new world of virtual meetings and remote interactions. Although it is far from optimal and most of us miss the personal, face-to-face interactions, I must say that we have made the best out of this situation. Despite the ongoing pandemic, we have...

As the Society shifted all in-person events...

I’m elated to share the latest ENDO 2022 updates that will surely pique your interest and reinforce the inimitable value of us connecting as one global endocrine community. Your dedicated Annual Meeting Steering Committee (AMSC) recently concluded a rigorous planning meeting, an important milestone in the process which contributes to 80% of the ENDO 2022...

This year marks 100 years of insulin, a discovery that has save millions of lives by transforming diabetes from certain death to a chronic condition. The field has come so far since 1921 with knowledge of importance of glycemic control, advances in insulin delivery models, diabetes technology, and type 1 diabetes prevention research.  I can...

We are thrilled to deliver the most up-to-date educational content during our Clinical Endocrinology Update (CEU) and Endocrine Board Review (EBR) meetings this fall. A record number of attendees joined us last year for the first-ever virtual CEU and EBR events, with more than 1,100 participants attending CEU 2020 and more than 600 taking part...
