                          President's Update  
June 2018
                It is hard to believe that over 70 percent of the ATA's year has already passed. In fact, only ten days after the summer we are now enjoying, it will be time to gather for our annual meeting. Gregory Randolph and Mabel Ryder, our capable Program Cochairs, have worked with the 21 other members of the committee to craft an exciting and innovative program with ample time for attendees to network at social events, private meetings, group discussions, and thousands of "chance" encounters. The Program-AT-A-Glance is now available at the ATA website, featuring a broad range of clinical and basic sessions in a variety of formats. Several of these are worth mentioning here as they are ground breaking as far as previous ATA annual meetings are concerned and are in keeping with the ATA's strategic goal of promoting the visibility of the ATA as the global leader in thyroid health. The first is the ATA Latin American Satellite Symposium from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM on Wednesday. Please note that separate registration for this event is required. On Saturday, from 1:00 to 6:00 PM, the 1st Annual ATA Advanced Practice Providers (APP) Satellite Symposium will occur. This event is intended to bring together the entire spectrum of health care professionals with a focus on thyroid disease as encountered by Nurse Practitioners, Clinical Nurse Specialists, Advanced Degree Nurses, and Physician Assistants. Another of the ATA's four strategic goals is to "establish an integrative process that catalyzes innovative, meaningful and fundable thyroid research". In this regard stay tuned for more information about an exciting new ATA supported resource that will help investigators keep abreast on newly reported thyroid hormone actions and facilitate their interaction with colleagues. Recognizing the importance of this, vigorous efforts are now underway to develop a preview of this during the meeting.
