Warning: It has come to our attention that there are companies operating on the internet that are claiming to offer registration and housing services for the Scientific Sessions, which are not affiliated with the ADA and do not offer any services on our behalf. You may receive e-mails or phone calls from these companies urging you to book hotel rooms. Registration and Housing should only be accessed from the ADA website, http://scientificsessions.diabetes.org and reserved through ADA’s official registration and housing provider (CMR).
