Welcome 

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

​

We would like to invite you to join us for the 4th Annual Heart in Diabetes (HiD) Medical Conference. Following the incredible success of the past three HiD meetings, along with encouragement from participants and combined with an overabundance of new data, planning for the 4th Heart in Diabetes is underway. The Conference will be held on June 26-28, 2020, in New York City, New York.

​

This CME program is a unique medical conference designed to evaluate state-of-the-art clinical research outcomes on heart and kidney disease in diabetes and its implications for clinical practice. HiD will bring together world-renowned clinical leaders in diabetes, CVD, CKD, and the liver to develop a multi-disciplinary, comprehensive understanding of the impact of new clinical science on the management of cardiometabolic conditions. The goal is to help cardiologists, endocrinologists, lipidologists, nephrologists, hepatologists, and Primary Care Experts align their goals and management approaches to provide best practices for high-risk patients.

​

Recent trials have demonstrated a cardiovascular benefit from agents that control glycemia, lipids, blood pressure, and inflammation in people with diabetes. However, among practicing professionals, including experts in the field, there is a gap in understanding the implications of these new developments and their impact on disease management.

​

The meeting provides up-to-date clinical science of the Heart in Diabetes by providing multidisciplinary outcome data and its implications for practice by evaluating data from the cardiology, endocrine/diabetes, and kidney points of view. Sessions will cover data and management of lipids, glucose, coronary syndromes, congestive heart failure, the kidney, coagulation, arrhythmia, other related conditions while evaluating the relevance of society guidelines. The meeting will promote discussions through panels and debates and, for the first time this year, HiD will showcase abstracts which will be published in Clinical Cardiology.

If you are a cardiologist, endocrinologist, nephrologist, diabetologist, lipidologist, internist, or a clinician with an interest in the science of the Heart in Diabetes, this meeting is for you! We personally invite you to join us in this exciting endeavor. Please also consider submitting an abstract.
 

Please register today! Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions. We look forward to seeing you in Philadelphia in July!
