The European Genomic Institute for Diabetes (EGID) will host its 5th international symposium: the gut, incretins and diabetes, from December 4th, 2018, Lille.
This biennial event brings an international focus to our work by the joining of the IDEA Summit and the EGID symposium.
The committee and speakers are world leaders in their fields and will present the latest scientific advances in diabetes and related disorders.
