Program Overview

The conference architecture will emphasize interactive learning, featuring didactic lectures from leading experts, practical small group learning sessions, pre-conference boot camps for foundational knowledge, and hands-on workshops focusing on key practice skills. Internationally renowned specialists in metabolic medicine will lead content development and serve as faculty, ensuring state-of-the-art information is presented.

Target Audience:

Nurse practitioners, nurses and physician assistants/associates that are actively managing patients with metabolic conditions across various specialties (endocrinology, primary care, cardiology, gastroenterology, obesity medicine, etc.).
