Our annual SfE BES conference took place in Glasgow from 13 to 15 November 2023. More than 1,100 attendees joined us for an enriching conference which featured some of the best clinical and scientific research from across our field.

It was fantastic to return to Scotland to bring our community together and learn from each other, share our passion for endocrinology, and collectively work towards advancing research and improving patient care.

Thank you to all of our exhibitors and sponsors for supporting this amazing event.
