Open access webinars for patients

Our next webinar 'Living with ACC: Care, Support, and What’s Ahead' will take place on Saturday 4 October 2025 - more information coming soon. 

The Adrenal Patient Forum webinar series started in 2024 with the aim of responding to educational needs of patient community in the area of adrenal endocrinology. In 2023 ESE ran a survey amongst affiliated Patient Advocacy Group members to evaluate interest in such webinars  and to identify the priority topics. Following the topics indicated in the survey, dedicated Programme Committees design the programmes of the webinars.
