New Session Format at AACE Annual Meeting 2024 in New Orleans

Our aim at AACE 2024 is to impart knowledge and sharpen your skills in endocrinology by incorporating more than one session format to deliver content. We are confident that our new blended learning approach will offer you a more comprehensive learning experience. 

Building upon the success of last year's launch of The AACE Talk Show, Collaboration Station, and Case-Based Conversations, we are excited to introduce our latest addition: the Point-Counterpoint Debate.

Point-Counterpoint Debate 

A field as large as endocrinology brings segmented viewpoints, and the goal of these discussions is to give the audience a deeper understanding on the nuanced perspectives within our field while perhaps changing a few minds. Come to the session ready to debate controversial topics in endocrinology. We want to flush it out!

Moving the Needle on Vaccinations: Lessons from AACE’s Health System Partners

AACE is part of a consortium of medical specialty  societies,  funded through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and supported by the Council on Medical Specialty Societies (CMSS), working to improve vaccination rates among vulnerable populations. Through this work, we've partnered with endocrine practices in seven health systems to support quality improvement initiatives aimed at increasing vaccination coverage among adults with Diabetes.
