Dear Colleagues,

As Chair of the Conference Board of Directors, and following the tremendous success of previous BDER editions, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 8th Bahrain Diabetes and Endocrine Review Conference (BDER 2026), which will take place on 30-31 January 2026 in the Gulf Hotel, Kingdom of Bahrain.

The scientific committee has once again curated a rich and dynamic program that offers diverse learning opportunities across the fields of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism. Over two full days, attendees will benefit from high-quality scientific sessions, state-of-the-art presentations, clinical symposia, and multidisciplinary discussions.

We are proud to host a distinguished faculty of national, regional, and international experts, who will share the latest clinical updates and evidence-based practices to support continuous improvement in patient care. Additionally, the conference will feature a neutral platform for engagement with industry partners, offering access to innovations in therapeutics and healthcare technologies.

This annual meeting is not only a hub for scientific exchange, but also an opportunity to strengthen professional networks and promote collaborative dialogue between healthcare providers, researchers, and policymakers from Bahrain and beyond.

On behalf of the conference board of directors, I look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues to the 8th edition of BDER.

We look forward to seeing you on our vibrant island, Bahrain.

Warm regards,
Dr. Wiam Hussein
Senior Consultant Endocrinologist
BDER Conference Chairman
