Congratulations to the laureates.
Meet the 2024 Endocrine Society Laureates
Aug 2023
The Endocrine Society today announced it has chosen 14 leading endocrinologists as winners of its prestigious 2024 Laureate Awards, the top honors in the field.
Endocrinologists are scientists and medical doctors who specialize in unravelling the mysteries of hormone disorders to care for patients and cure diseases. These professionals have achieved breakthroughs in scientific discoveries and clinical care benefiting people with hundreds of conditions, including diabetes, thyroid disorders, obesity, hormone-related cancers, growth problems, osteoporosis and infertility.
Established in 1944, the Society’s Laureate Awards recognize the highest achievements in the endocrinology field, including groundbreaking research and innovations in clinical care. The Endocrine Society will present the awards to the winners at ENDO 2024, the Society’s annual meeting.

Of whom, just one has the word thyroid in their mini-bio.
Sandra Daniela Licht, MD
They manage to mention osteoporosis, pituitary, metabolism, parathyroid, and many other things, so many of them will obviously be including aspects of thyroid. But I can't help being disappointed that thyroid seems to be in the background to such an extent.
Maybe I am being too focused on one part of endocrinology? Certainly possible. But it is a huge part of the field.
