UCSF CODEX

#DEX25 Day 2 is underway, and Tina Cifra is currently leading our Best of the Abstracts session for a full room. Presenters are bringing the research, and our audience is bringing the questions. We can’t wait for the People’s Choice award announcement this afternoon!

Tonight at #DEX25, CIDM presented the Mark L. Graber Diagnostic Quality Award to two recipients who embody exactly what this award celebrates: relentless commitment to diagnostic excellence and leadership that inspires others to raise the bar. Congratulations to David Newman-Toker and Taro Shimizu!

🔮 The challenge: 5 minutes, one slide, predict the future of diagnostic excellence. Our #DEX25 “The Great Debate” keynote panelists delivered bold visions and provocative ideas that set the tone for three days of breakthrough thinking. What a way to kick things off!

#DEX25 is officially underway! Right now, our three DEX25 co-hosts are welcoming over 160 colleagues. The energy in the room is electric, driven both by ample coffee and a strong dedication to the mission.

The future of dix ex is being shaped right here, right now. More to come. Stay tuned! 👀

The stage is set. The coffee tumblers and pens are lined up. Tomorrow morning, #DEX25 officially begins in beautiful Ann Arbor.

Here in person? We can't wait to see you tomorrow morning!

Following remotely? We'll bring the insights to you! Stay tuned.

Joining us at #DEX25 next week? Don’t miss one of our most anticipated sessions: “Great Debate: What Will Diagnosis Look Like in 5 Years?”
