The ATDC Conference has been an integral part of education and case-based study of upcoming and new diabetes technology for over 30 years. This is an annual course designed to help healthcare providers caring for patients with diabetes, including but not limited to: endocrinologists/diabetes specialists, internists, pediatricians, family physicians, physician assistants, medical residents and fellows, nurse practitioners, nurses, dietitians, social workers, and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialists (CDCES).

Attendees will have an opportunity to interact with leaders in the field and participate in detailed question-and-answer sessions with the experts. The 2024 ATDC Conference will address the following needs: improving glucose control; overweight and obesity epidemic; managing diabetes in special circumstances (toddlers, elderly, etc.); therapy options based on new data to prevent and/or treat cardiovascular, kidney, and eye disease; ever-increasing healthcare costs, especially in the hospital system; emerging technologies for artificial pancreas (Hybrid Closed-Loop systems), continuous glucose managing (CGM) systems, and other insulin-delivery systems; the emerging role of Time-In-Range (TIR), Time-In-Tight-Range (TITR), and other CGM metrics for day-to-day diabetes management; effective management of glucose control before, during, and post-pregnancy associated with T1D; real-life clinical challenges in hypoglycemia management; nutritional and diabetes management; clinical challenges in both pediatric and adult care; and COVID-19 diabetes management, specifically integrating telemedicine in clinical care. Finally, we will host 6 keynotes to touch on a wide range of topics.

As one can expect from this 4-day conference, there will be enough time for attendees to interact with industry-sponsored booths and device and pharmaceutical reps.

The conference is hosted by the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes in conjunction with the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine. It is supported by the Children’s Diabetes Foundation and both industry sponsors and grants.
