#1: Vendor Updates: Rep & MSL Tables
Vendor registration is open for both Fall 2024 and Spring 2025. Did you know that we now have two exhibitor booth opportunities? Your organization/division can have a standard table with your rep and a second table for your MSL. There's only 24 booths max, so claim yours now. For non-profit organizations, we are accepting applications to waive the registration fee if attendance is cost prohibitive., to be reviewed and approved at the boards discretion.
#2: Accepting Donations
Endo Days has been committed to being the lowest cost resource for medical education. We have continued as the lowest cost educational institute. We are a proud 501(c)3 nonprofit. We are accepting your generous donations to help us continue this mission: to provide excellent, up-to-date, practice changing knowledge to our endocrinology community.
#3: June Acknowledgements
As experts in Endocrinology, all of us provide care to our beloved LGBTQIA2+ community, some providing gender affirming care, all of us providing our standard work as queer folks exist in all spaces. As an open and proud gay man, I am honored to be the Administrator of Endo Days. I personally want to wish us all a happy and safe Pride Month! Thank you for being safe, compassionate clinicians for our trans and non-binary patients. We celebrate our LGBTQIA2+ community in June and every month.
June also includes Juneteenth, a pivotal day to honor the emancipation of enslaved African Americans and reflect on the ongoing journey toward equality. It is crucial to acknowledge the persistent health disparities faced by our BIPOC community. As health care clinicians, it is our duty to address social determinants of health to uphold out commitments of benevolence and non-maleficence. If you have not already read it, here is an article by Golden et. al., (2021) in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism discussing health equity in endocrinology.
