EndoCompass Research Roadmap: Ready to Launch!

Date: 25 April 2025

 

 

 

 

 

At the upcoming Joint Congress of the European Society of Endocrinology (ESE) and the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) in Copenhagen (10–13 May 2025), the European endocrine community will get a first look at EndoCompass, a major new research initiative that aims to give endocrine science the attention it deserves.

“EndoCompass Research Roadmap: Directions for the Future of Endocrine Science” is set to be published in June 2025 as a supplement to both the European Journal of Endocrinology and Hormone Research in Paediatrics. This follows two years of dedicated collaboration led by ESE and ESPE, together with representatives of nine partner societies in Europe and Endo-ERN (European Network for Rare Endocrine Diseases). The project involved 228 experts from across Europe, bringing together clinical experts, researchers, patient advocacy groups and specialist partner societies.  

To mark the upcoming launch, two dedicated sessions at the Joint Congress will offer attendees an exclusive preview. This includes a Scientific Symposium on Sunday 11 May to introduce key findings, focusing particularly on the cross-cutting areas of artificial intelligence, laboratory medicine and early careers in endocrine research. And on Monday 12 May, Manuel Heitor, former Portuguese Minister for Science, Technology and Higher Education, will give a keynote speech in a special session on the importance of endocrine science for society and the need for greater investment. He will also advocate for increased activism to support science in Europe.
