There are companies that are claiming to offer registration and housing services for ADA’s Scientific Sessions, which are not affiliated with ADA and do not offer any services on our behalf. You may receive emails or phone calls from these companies urging you to book hotel rooms or register. Registration and housing should only be accessed from scientificsessions.diabetes.org and reserved through ADA’s official registration and housing provider, Convention Management Resources, (CMR) and ADA International Group Department (ADA-IGD). If you do not see this logo on the website, then they are not our official provider!

If you are contacted by any agency other than CMR and ADA-IGD, please immediately notify CMR.
