Anglo-Danish-Dutch Diabetes Group Meeting: 8 - 11 May 2007

The Anglo-Danish-Dutch Diabetes Group

For those of you who are not familiar with ADDDG, this is a small and friendly meeting for young researchers in the field of Diabetes. The meeting is mainly aimed at clinicians undergoing MD/PhD studies, but abstracts are also invited from those in clinical posts, medical students and non-clinical PhD students/young post-docs. The meeting was initially set up 25 years ago to encourage young researchers who at large international meetings might not have the opportunity to present and discuss their work. As the name suggests, delegates are from the UK, the Netherlands and Denmark, with the meeting rotating between the 3 countries.

Each delegate will give a 20 minute presentation of their work and is encouraged to join in the discussion of the other abstracts. Each country also supplies a "senior discussant" to help the debate along. In addition one afternoon is given over to a social activity!

The 25th annual ADDDG meeting will be held from 8th-11th May 2007, at the Hotel Marienlyst, Denmark. All costs (apart from a £50 registration) are covered by Novo Nordisk and they will also make travel arrangements for UK delegates.

As this year's meeting is the 25th Anniversary, there will be special celebrations with a number of the ex-committee members from the 3 countries attending for the Gala Dinner.

Deadline for submission of abstracts is February 16th 2007. Registration and abstract submission is via the ADDDG website.

Contact details for the UK organizing committee are:
Dr. Katharine Owen or Dr. John Porter or Mr. Peter George (Novo Nordisk)
