Bayer believes in the need for continuing health education both for your patients' care and your professional development. We've gathered some information on events and research that will help you stay updated with the latest on diabetes.

The following organizations will be hosting a number of diabetes-related conferences around the world. These events provide an excellent learning environment.

Nearly 4,000 diabetes educators and other healthcare professionals will gather at the
Annual Meeting and Exhibition in San Antonio, Texas to exchange the latest information
with diabetes educators from around the United States. This year’s theme is: Changing
Lives – Building Knowledge – Creating Opportunities
The Annual Meeting Program Committee invites you to participate by submitting an
abstract to be considered for presentation in San Antonio. Interactions with colleagues on
diabetes management and education are the cornerstone to building communications that
allow all of us to provide better healthcare. The overall goal for this meeting is to explore
organizations and systems that can be utilized as community partners to support diabetes
prevention and self management through public health, prevention and lifestyle

European Association for the Study of Diabetes

September 20-24, 2010
Stockholm, Sweden

The Annual Meeting of the Association is held in a different European city each year. Abstracts are invited from members as well as non-members. All abstracts are anonymously reviewed by a Programme Committee, chaired by the Honorary Secretary. The EASD was one of the first international Associations to introduce the anonymous review of abstracts. The high quality of scientific research presented at the Annual Meetings is attested to by the increasing participation. The scientific programme of the Meeting, providing titles of the lectures and symposia, is made available online at a very early stage. Once confirmed, the speakers' names are made available and about 6-8 weeks before the start of the Meeting. All abstracts accepted for presentation can be accessed online via the online program. A search function assists the visitor in finding abstracts in their field of interest.
