💬 Planning Committee Member Spotlight
“Attending the 2023 Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group (DPSG) meeting during the final year of my MFM fellowship deeply shaped my early career. Immersed in cutting-edge research and the latest clinical updates, I left the meeting with a renewed passion for diabetes in pregnancy and the confidence to step into my role as an attending MFM physician and Director of Diabetes in Pregnancy in my institution.
The conference not only equipped me with practical knowledge but also connected me with global leaders in the field, whose collaborative spirit and dedication to advancing care were truly inspirational. It reaffirmed my commitment to evidence-based practice and positioned me to lead with both clarity and enthusiasm from day one.
I am now honored to serve as a member of the planning committee for this year’s DPSG meeting and am hopeful that it will inspire many more attendees the way it inspired me.”
