ENDO 2003 Research Summaries Book
|
ENDO 2003 The ENDO 2003 Research Summaries Book has been designed to facilitate media coverage of the 85th Annual Meeting of The Endocrine Society. The highlighted abstracts contained in this book have been identified as those that would be of particular interest to journalists. They were selected from among nearly 2,500 abstracts that will be presented at ENDO 2003. Each abstract in this book is presented in its original scientific form, just as it appears in the Program and Abstracts Book. A news summary of the research, which was prepared in coordination with the research teams, follows each abstract. The summaries include additional background information on the area of research and, in many cases, the source of funding for the research. The original abstracts appear on the left-hand pages and the news summaries on the facing right-hand pages. The abstracts are divided into general topic areas, as denoted in the table of contents, which follows this page. Hot Topics and Clinical Trials Symposia, the first section of this book, features results of up-to-the-minute research and the latest clinical trials. At the end of the book, there are indices of abstracts in numerical order, by author, date of presentation and by research funding. In addition, this book includes a special compilation of abstracts related to the focus of ENDO 2003,“Cardiovascular Endocrinology.” These abstracts are listed in the “Cardiovascular Abstracts” index at the back of the book and are marked in the indices with the symbol: ♥ The full ENDO 2003 program is available on The Endocrine Society’s Web site through the On-line Science Planner at www.endo-society.org.
