16th Annual California Conference: Expanding the Universe of Diabetes Care
May 3-4, 2024
Universal City, CA
Activity description: This conference will provide our attendees with a comprehensive educational program with opportunities to interact with diabetes experts. Invited guest speakers will share new clinical and research information to empower our attendees with an enriched knowledge base and new tools for patient care. Healthcare professionals who attend this meeting will be able to design an effective diabetes education plan for their patients based upon the patient’s individual health and education needs.

These engaging sessions features include live question and answer sessions and provide networking opportunities for attendees to learn best practices from each other.
