Our History
For 100 years, the Endocrine Society has been at the forefront of hormone science and public health. Learn about the history, and view milestones, of the Endocrine Society.
Our community of endocrine scientists and clinicians are dedicated to solving some of the most pressing public health issues of our time such as diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, thyroid disorders, and infertility. We promote breakthroughs in endocrine science and patient care through our education, research and advocacy efforts, which include:
Two recent papers touted the benefits of having an endocrine hospitalist-led Inpatient Diabetes Management Service (IDMS) in a community hospital setting to reduce the rates of both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, length of stay, and even hospital costs. Endocrine News gets a firsthand look at a community hospital’s use of an IDMS from both endocrinologists and a patient who experienced the service after a diabetes diagnosis.
Attendees saw for themselves that endocrine science was once again at the forefront of creating a better understanding of COVID-19; myriad groups of scientists presented their topical research on the biggest endocrine challenges related to the pandemic. Researchers examined the implications of COVID-19 infection for individuals with certain comorbidities, including obesity, hyperglycemia, adrenal insufficiency, and vitamin D deficiency.
We imagine a world in which advances in endocrine science, education, and care promote optimal health and well-being. In this future:
To realize these dreams we must harness the power of everyone and apply it everywhere, by embracing inclusiveness and fostering respectful interactions throughout our diverse and global community.
