10th Annual World Congress on Insulin Resistance, Diabetes & Cardiovascular Disease (WCIRDC)

Congress - Los Angeles, California, United States

 The World Congress on Insulin Resistance, Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease (WCIRDC) is a unique and exciting multidisciplinary program, to be held this year in Los Angeles, California. The Congress is the premiere global meeting dedicated to obesity, diabetes, metabolism and energy balance, linking research to clinical practice, and highlighting our theme -- exploring new frontiers in metabolism -- tomorrow's clinical science today.

The WCIRDC has become a distinguished platform where the interaction of these multiple metabolic systems is evaluated in a clinical, multidisciplinary environment.  Ultimately the Congress focuses on innovative approaches to developing a comprehensive plan for managing risk factors and diseases, which include lifestyle and medications.

This year will introduce new aspects of bone, fat, leptin and adiponectin, as well as mitochondria and related proteins, to metabolic impairment in human disease.

New this year – all sessions will be followed by a panel discussion, and a clinical implications commentary by recognized experts.  The Congress will conclude with a special symposium, “Diabetes and the Heart.” The 10th WCIRDC welcomes the annual meeting of the American Heart Association (AHA) to Los Angeles, which begins as our Congress ends.
