Objective of the Symposium:
The
Adrenal Study Day aims to bridge the gap between fundamental endocrine science
and practical clinical applications.
We really want you to come in person, which is effectively free as the fee includes lunch and refreshments.
The zoom fee is really for people who cannot possibly come in person, and is the average saved in train fares.
The event will focus on delivering
cutting-edge insights into endocrine disorders, with a morning session
dedicated to clinical
science and an afternoon session emphasising clinical
case discussions.
