You will learn more about the different topics and sessions on the following pages.
DFCon is widely acknowledged as being a leader in discovery. Next-generation endovascular therapies, wearable robots, spray-on skin, sociomicrobiology, smart textiles, phage therapy, augmented reality and injectable sensors have all made their debut at DFCon.
Throughout the years, DFCon has been recognized as the premier scientific and educational diabetic foot event, but our ambition goes beyond that. It is always the hope to cultivate the advancements of our field and continue to learn from each other.
DFU: San Antonio (5-6 December)
We’re thrilled to welcome you to the revival of The Diabetic Foot Update (DFUpdate)—a landmark meeting in diabetic foot care, originally led by Professor Lawrence B. Harkless from 1984 to 2007. This year’s focus on the PAD, a complex and often under-recognized complication of diabetes, offers a timely opportunity for clinicians to explore innovative strategies and collaborate across disciplines. DFUpdate is designed not just as a source of knowledge, but as a dynamic forum for discussion, connection, and clinical transformation.
Whether you join us to learn, network, or contribute your expertise, your presence plays a key role in advancing care and improving outcomes. We look forward to seeing you in San Antonio.
