Many researchers from Folkhälsan Research Center will participate in this years European Diabetes Conference and hold presentations on their areas of expertise.
Since its foundation in 1965, the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) has been organising an Annual Meeting, which has since become the largest international annual conference on diabetes research in the world.
This year’s conference is held during the incoming week and is fully virtual. Apart from presenting the latest results in diabetes and related research, it will host virtual 3D exhibition and spaces to connect with the global medical scientific community in real-time through chat, call, video and discussion forums.
Niina Sandholm from Folkhälsan Research Center has been invited to speak on “Uric acid: a biomarker or risk factor for disease” and many more of our researchers will hold oral or poster presentations about their areas of expertise.
