The Heart in Diabetes (HiD) brings multi-specialty world-renowned leaders in diabetes, obesity, and cardiorenal metabolic diseases interpreting state-of-the-art clinical data to improve the care of complex patients with these comorbidities.  This year, the conference will focus on incorporating emerging data including clinical trial outcomes into clinical practice. Emphasis will be given on implementing Guidelines Directed to Medical Treatment, addressing when and how to intervene early- to prevent morbidities in patients with Diabetes, and cardiorenal and metabolic diseases. The program will mix didactic presentations with cross-specialty panels with leading experts in cardiology, nephrology, endocrinology, and primary care discussing, with ample room for Q&A, optimal multi-disciplinary treatments for these patients.
 

The meeting will cover a wide range of topics including Obesity's impact on the Heart and kidneys, Women's health, ASCVD, HF, the Role of Digital & Technology, COVID-19 in Metabolic Conditions, Cardiomyopathy, Stroke prevention and treatment, Diabetes Management, Lipid Disorders, and emerging unique topics in the Cardio-renal-Metabolic Space.
