It is our great honor to invite you to the ICDM 2014 on behalf of the Korean Diabetes Association. This autumn symposium will be held in Kintex in Ilsan from Thursday 16 to Saturday 18, October 2014. After starting off as an international symposium in 2011, the 4th anniversary of this symposium will be accompanied by more than 1500 distinguished researchers from 20 different countries, creating a much more productive and active environment. The plenary lectures will be given by Dr. Jay H. Chung from NIH, Professor Steven Kliewer from the University of Texas, Southwestern and Professor Paolo Sassone-Corsi from University of California, Irvine. The main symposium consists of 14 sessions comprising basic and clinical researches on diabetes and metabolism. Various topics were selected by the organizing committee to cover diverse interests of the attendees. The Korean Diabetes Association will endeavor to provide all attendees of the symposium with vast academic information and accommodate an environment for researchers to build up new relationships. In addition, travel grants are provided for young researchers from all over the world, to help them join this attractive meeting. Lastly, we would like to thank you all for your attention and interest in ICDM 2014 and we dearly wish that you could spare some of your precious time to attend this symposium and honor us with your presence. We look forward to seeing you in Korea during this refreshing autumn. Sincerely yours, |
