“Please see important update from RCPI below.
Met Éireann currently has a Status Red Wind Warning in place for Dublin for Friday 24 January. A Status Red alert is the forecaster’s highest-level warning which has the potential to endanger human life, cause damage to exposed and vulnerable structures, disrupt services and transport, lead to significant power outages and cause fallen trees/branches. People in the areas affected by red warnings should stay indoors, avoid unnecessary travel and take action to protect themselves and their properties.
For this reason No 6 Kildare Street RCPI will be closed on January 24th 2025, therefore we have to cancel the Irish Endocrine Society Annual Study Day 2025.
We aim to reschedule this in-person event and we will be touch with further information as soon as we can.
For those who have paid for this event we will begin to issue refunds today and you should see this back in your account in the coming few days.
We do apologise and stay safe.”

Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of Dr Pyeh Kyithar, local organiser of the 49th Annual Meeting of the Irish Endocrine Society, please save the date for Portlaoise 7th and 8th November 2025.
Many thanks to all the members who attended the recent Joint UK Ireland meeting in Belfast with special acknowledgement and thanks to Helen Wallace as local organiser.
Finally, the Irish Endocrine Society would like to welcome Prof Steven Hunter as President of the Irish Endocrine Society. Best wishes to Steven on his achievement.

Unfortunately the deadline to attend the Gala Dinner in Belfast City Hall on Monday 14th October has now passed. For anyone who has not managed to secure a ticket and would like to attend, please email IES-SFE2024@
For anyone travelling by public transport, please double-check your travel times. The new Belfast Grand Central Station will open on Sunday 13th October and translink have advised that there are some changes to timetables. The enterprise train from Dublin will arrive and depart from Grand Central Station and not Lanyon Place as it did previously. The conference centre is roughly a mile from the new station- it is possible to get a connecting train or bus to Lanyon Place from Grand Central Station, a taxi or walk.
There are a number of carparks in the city centre. Please check with your hotel as many hotels will have arrangements for discounted rates for your stay.
I hope that this information is helpful- I wish you all a safe journey and look forward to seeing you in Belfast.
Best wishes
Helen

Local Organiser for the Joint Irish-UK Endocrine Meeting
Dear Colleagues
Please find the personal message below from Professor Rob Semple, the programme secretary why you can’t miss the Joint Irish-UK Endocrine Meeting!
“I hope this message finds you well. I’m excited to personally invite you to the first-ever Joint Irish-UK Endocrine Meeting at the ICC in Belfast between 14 – 15 October 2024. This meeting brings together the brightest minds in endocrinology from the UK and Ireland, along with outstanding speakers from further afield.
We’ve worked hard to curate a diverse and insightful programme, including:
You can also expect a strong focus on diabetes and metabolism, featuring more content in this area than at our usual SfE BES conferences. Highlights include updates on diabetes remission, community diabetes care, and metabolic syndrome, with contributions from top experts.
There are also fantastic opportunities in the programme for early career delegates to present their work, either via posters, case reports, or plenary orals available.
Explore the full programme and register here.
Dear Colleagues,
As we approach the joint Irish-United Kingdom, please find attached a timetable detailing the programme of lectures and events for the meeting scheduled October 13th and 14th 2024. Registration is open. On behalf of the organisers, the Irish Endocrine Society would like to thank those who have registered for the meeting and encourage those who are planning to attend, to complete registration if possible in advance of the meeting.
See you in Belfast
