Endocrine Research Society

The Endocrine Research Society (ERS) is a non-profit medical research organization based in Vancouver, British Columbia, dedicated to improving endocrine healthcare through clinical and foundational research. Founded in 1995 by Dr. Hugh Tildesley, the society focuses on diabetes, osteoporosis, and pituitary disorders, with a particular emphasis on evaluating and implementing diabetes technologies such as insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors. ERS collaborates with institutions like St. Paul's Hospital and the University of British Columbia to conduct studies and host accredited medical conferences, including BC Endocrine Day. The organization also provides educational programs for medical students and professionals, aiming to translate research findings into improved clinical practices.
