WHO

Founded in 1923, the American Thyroid Association (ATA) is a professional society of over 900 U.S. and international physicians and scientists who specialize in research and treatment of thyroid diseases. The ATA is dedicated to promoting scientific and public understanding of the biology of the thyroid gland and its disorders, so as to improve methods for prevention, diagnosis, and management. The ATA fosters excellence in research, patient care, and education of patients, the public, and the medical and scientific communities. The ATA also guides public policy about the prevention and management of thyroid diseases

WHAT

The ATA Annual Meeting will bring together physicians and investigators from around the world to share the newest clinical and basic science research into thyroid disease. The meeting features poster review sessions, platform presentations, earlyriser seminars, symposia, “meet the professor” workshops, discussion groups, and distinguished lectures. Awards are made to outstanding clinicians, academicians, young researchers, and dedicated Association members. Selected young investigators receive travel grants to attend the meeting. Exhibitors present related pharmaceutical, laboratory, diagnostic, publication, and organizational products and services. Every fifth year, the American Thyroid Association joins with the Latin American Thyroid Society, the European Thyroid Association, and the Asia Oceania Thyroid Association for an International Thyroid Congress.
