President John Morris - ATA Update December 2016
 |
John C. Morris, M.D.
ATA President |
Happy Holidays from ATA!
As a great way of kicking off the New Year, we have just learned that the updated Thyroid and Pregnancy guidelines have been accepted for publication and expect that they will be published in THYROID in the March issue. Congratulations and thanks to co-chairs Elizabeth Pearce and Erik Alexander and to all members of this guidelines task force for their tremendous effort. I hope everyone reading this realizes the huge amount of work that is required to bring a project of this magnitude to completion. Clearly the product here is worth the cost, as these guidelines will join the most recently completed Hyperthyroidism Guidelines and their existing companions on other thyroid topics as the gold-standards for diagnosis and management of thyroid disorders and dysfunction in pregnancy.
