Invitation to the 52nd Annual Meeting of SSSD - extended deadlines for abstract and early registration

On behalf of the organizing committee (Kurt Højlund and Niels Grarup) you are hereby invited to the 52nd Annual Meeting of the Scandinavian Society for the Study of Diabetes (SSSD) 19-21 May 2017 at Sinatur Hotel Storebælt in Nyborg, Denmark. The objective of the Annual Meeting of SSSD is to give diabetes researchers in the Nordic and neighbouring countries an opportunity to meet, exchange and discuss clinical and experimental diabetes research.
AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUNG RESEARCHERS TO PRESENT THEIR RESEARCH
The main focus of the meeting is the opportunity for scientists to present their own clinical or basic science. It has always been the aim of the annual meetings of SSSD to enable young researchers to meet and orally present research projects in a friendly yet knowledgeable environment. For the symposia we have invited lecturers to cover both clinical themes and cutting edge basic science.
