Message from Programme Chair
On behalf of the Programme Committee, I am proud to invite you to the IDF Congress 2022 in Lisbon.
It is a perfect place for all colleagues from around the world to meet and greet, update scientific knowledge, share new data and innovations and exchange experiences.
The scientific programme of the IDF Congress 2022 will cover a wide range of topics relevant to diabetes. Across eight parallel streams, it will address the basic science and biology of diabetes, the development and application of new drugs, therapies and technologies, the latest information from clinical trials, the burden of diabetes and its complications in populations around the globe, the prevention of diabetes, and policy and advocacy issues critical to tackling the diabetes pandemic.
A particular focus on issues relating to women and the voice of people with diabetes will be a feature of the programme. Speakers will include world-leading experts, early career researchers, and people at the coalface who work with or live with diabetes. A range of different formats from lectures, to debates and workshops will present cutting-edge findings and state-of-the-art reviews. The highly interactive environment will encourage exchanges of views and the development of new ideas and collaborations.
We look forward to welcoming you all to Lisbon for an inspiring and memorable IDF Congress 2022.
