From 2014 onwards, ABCD news will in
future be published in the Journal of the Association of
British Clinical Diabetologists, which is the relaunched for
2014 British Journal of Diabetes and Vascular Disease. Prior
to 2014, ABCD produced a twice-yearly Newsletter,
designed to keep members in touch with the activities of the
Association and its members and to act as a forum for
discussion of important and topical clinical and
professional issues. Links to these historic Newsletters are
given below. |
