presentation of selected recent, timely articles by the fellows in a journal
club format.
Core Endocrine
Laboratory Conference: In
this weekly conference, endocrine tests are discussed and correlated with
clinical data. This conference
provides both clinical and basic science education since basic biochemistry and
physiology related to the endocrine system are frequently discussed within this
context.
Diabetes Journal

conference, relevant articles are presented and discussed among members of the
diabetes team (physicians, nurse educators, nurse practitioner, physician
assistant, and dietitian). Fellows are

Conference: In this
bi-weekly conference, members from the Division of Endocrinology or other basic
or clinical divisions and departments present their endocrine-related research

University Park campuses by video connection. Investigators at both
campuses, along with invited outside speakers, present basic science and
clinical research in diabetes. Past seminars are archived on
line.
Basic
Science Conference: In
this monthly conference, Dr. Michael Verderame discusses the clinical
application of molecular biology techniques.
Endocrine
Oncology Journal Club:
