    About the Symposium

    The 2027 Norman Fleischer NYC Diabetes Symposium will be held on May 7, at the

    Weill Cornell Medicine, Belfer Research Building.

    The primary aim of the Norman Fleischer NYC Diabetes Symposium is to provide a forum that promotes professional interaction and facilitates collaboration across institutions in the New York City Metropolitan Area.

    The Symposium also aims to foster increased awareness of research and to promote multi-site collaborative projects across the many regional institutions. An emphasis is placed on enabling junior faculty, postdoctoral fellows, fellows and doctoral students to interact with each other as well as with senior faculty and professionals.

    The Symposium will, create opportunities for researchers to present their work and enhance career opportunities for junior investigators.

    We encourage scientists, clinicians, and other professionals working on diabetes and related traits in academic or other settings to attend the Symposium.
