Event Details

Purpose: The International Conference on Diabetes and Depression is a multidisciplinary meeting focused on the co-morbidity of these two significant, chronic conditions. The primary goals of the Conference are to (1) present current research related to the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of co-morbid diabetes and depression; and (2) identify important research gaps and opportunities that are likely to lead to improved care and outcomes for co-morbid diabetes and depression. The meeting will include expert speakers, discussants, and panelists who can address these issues from the United States’ and global perspectives.
