The 60th European Association for the Study of Diabetes Annual Meeting (EASD) will take place from 9 to 13 September 2024 at the IFEMA Convention Centre in MadridIt is an excellent opportunity to keep up to date with the latest developments in the field of diabetes. It is the interface between discovery science and clinical practice where the key debates that will move the field forward take place.
It has been an extraordinary journey, from starting 60 years ago with just 220 participants and 48 submitted abstracts, to becoming one of the largest diabetes scientific congresses in the world, with six parallel sessions, hundreds of presentations and attracting up to 15,000 participants.
This year in Madrid we will again present an exceptional programme, covering the latest developments and the hottest topics in the various fields of research and care of diabetes and its related complications.
The "who's who" of the diabetes world will gather at the EASD Annual Meeting 2024 to gain new knowledge, network, discuss, debate, exchange ideas and celebrate, with us, what has been achieved over the past decades.
Discover the vibrant atmosphere of the 60th EASD Annual Meeting, connect and interact with colleagues from all over the world; it will be inspiring and energising to be surrounded by others working towards the same goal: promoting excellence in diabetes care through research, networking and education!

The European Association for the Study of Diabetes e.V. (EASD) is a non-profit academic membership-based organisation. It was founded in 1965 and is based in Düsseldorf, Germany.
EASD is a network of diabetologists with active members from all over the world. Membership is open to scientists, physicians, students, postdocs and fellows, allied health professionals and nurses who are interested in the field of diabetes or related diseases.
The EASD Annual Meeting is one of the largest diabetes conferences in the world and attracts thousands of delegates each year. The scientific programme includes hundreds of talks, presentations and discussions on the latest findings in basic and clinical diabetes research.
The Association is also a leading player in postgraduate education, having trained thousands of health professionals through specific training courses and online educational activities, and is actively involved in the production and endorsement of statements and guidelines, translating the latest results of diabetes research into best practice in diabetes management.
By creating the Early Career Academy, EASD increased its commitment to support, train, mentor and create opportunities for early and mid-career scientists, clinicians and students in the field of diabetes.
In 2000, the EASD founded the European Foundation for the Study of Diabetes (EFSD) to stimulate diabetes research in Europe. EFSD provides support in all areas of diabetes research through a wide range of joint and independent initiatives. Funding sources are available throughout the year and, since its inception, the EFSD has committed more than €120 million to diabetes research in Europe.
EASD is also the editor of Diabetologia, a leading international monthly journal on diabetes with an impact factor of 8.2 (2022). The journal publishes original clinical, translational and experimental research on all aspects of diabetes and related topics.
