SfE BES conference a big success in Birmingham

The 2011 SfE BES conference in Birmingham was a huge success; we would like to extend our thanks to all those involved.

The conference schedule was packed with engaging plenary lectures, meet the experts sessions, clinical debates as well as both Young and Senior Endocrinologists' symposiums. To wind down in the evenings, delegates were treated to an array of social events including a drinks reception to launch the public website, You & Your Hormones, the YE quiz and of course the conference dinner.
