A Message from our Program Co-Chairs:

We are pleased to invite you to join us at the ATA Annual Meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona, over the dates, September 10-14, 2025.

We have designed the program to offer the latest clinical content and scientific research, while including updates on the ATA’s guidelines. Choose from a variety of sessions in basic science, endocrinology, surgery, and thyroid cancer. New this year we will feature a Core Thyroidology track to highlight foundational biology for attendees across all career stages and a joint session with the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging.

Always a cornerstone of the program the plenary sessions each day will highlight topics including the popular Year-in-Thyroidology and presentations from the 2025 ATA Award winners. Throughout the meeting you will have opportunities to network and meet colleagues, engage with our trainees and early career members, and join the Saturday night closing party.

Be sure to visit the exhibit hall for a variety of events.  Learn about the latest products and services available from our corporate partners. View multiple daily poster sessions. Check out a full schedule of events in the Expo Theater. And back by popular demand,  an opening night welcome reception, along with themed morning and afternoon refreshment breaks.

We look forward to welcoming you to the 2025 Annual Meeting. See you in Scottsdale!

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Cottrill, MD
