Dear Friends,
The Asian American Diabetes Initiative (AADI) and I are thrilled to host the Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Diabetes Coalition's national conference at Joslin Diabetes Center on August 11, 2018.
It is titled "The Future of Population Diabetes Research and Advocacy: Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islanders".
This will be the 5th conference hosted by AANHPI Diabetes Coalition and is one of the many arms of AADI. The previous meetings have been held in Hawaii, the West Coast and Washington DC. There will be many leaders in Asian American health, pharmaceutical companies, our local communities and care providers.
As a Co-Chair, I am especially excited to host this year's conference here in Boston and welcome distinguished researchers such as Drs. Howard Koh and Frank Hu from the area.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions. I hope that you will be able to join this meeting.
Best,
George L. King, MD
