Check out the top 5 reasons to attend our Annual Meeting: Envision 

1. Expert Panels

Our Annual Meeting is the world's largest clinical endocrinology meeting with over 125+ medical panel experts. Our speakers will be presenting advancements in the management of endocrine disease, breakthroughs in scientific research, and new technologies for improving patient care. I’m excited to also introduce our keynote speaker, Tait Shanafelt, M.D., Chief Wellness Officer of Stanford Medicine, and Associate Dean at the Stanford School of Medicine. 

Keynote Presentation: Physician Burnout and Wellness 

Nearly half of the nation’s providers have reported feeling emotionally exhausted and ineffective, according to studies by Tait Shanafelt, MD. Whether you’re an endocrinologist, cardiologist, nephrologist, gastroenterologist/liver disease specialist, primary care physician, physician assistant, nurse practitioner, nurse, or pharmacist, we have all experienced burnout at some point of our career. Join Dr. Shanafelt to learn how to address workflow barriers and reduce burnout in order to improve outcomes for patients and self-care.  

In addition to our keynote speaker, our annual meeting offers six disease specific plenary sessions: 

  1. Diabetes Plenary: "The Discovery of Insulin Revisited: Lessons for the Modern Era" 
  2. Nutrition and Obesity Plenary: "Obesity, Genetics, Precision Medicine" 
  3. Thyroid Plenary: "Epidemiology of Thyroid Cancer: 2021" 
  4. Lipids and CV Health Plenary: "Should Omega-3 Fatty Acids Be Administered to High CV Risk Patients with Elevated Triglycerides?"

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic many organizations have opted to have virtual events for the health and safety of our community, but don’t let the word virtual give you the impression that it’s going to be another boring Zoom meeting. We’re taking the meaning of virtual to the next level and vamping up our sessions, so you can engage with our colleagues, industry partners, and make new connections. This is a great opportunity to join from anywhere in the world and ask live questions.
