Speakers from Vanderbilt, the University of Toronto, and Novartis discussed new therapies that have shown promise in treating Type 2 diabetes. The symposium, planned to be held annually, was made possible by a gift from the Eskind family, whose support also established the Vanderbilt-Eskind Diabetes Clinic, which opened last year.
