Annually welcoming over 12,000 researchers and clinicians, including physicians, nurses, endocrinologists, cardiologists, registered dietitian nutritionists, and others, this conference distills the latest care standards from the ADA’s Standards of Care in Diabetes, brings the newest research to the forefront, and convenes the diabetes professional community to share ideas, network, and form connections.
