Diabetes Technology Society (DTS) is a nonprofit organization committed to promoting development and use of technology in the fight against diabetes. DTS was established in 2001 by David C. Klonoff, MD, FACP, FRCP (Edin), Fellow AIMBE, Medical Director of the Diabetes Research Institute at Mills Peninsula Health Services and Clinical Professor of Medicine at University of California, San Francisco. The DTS mission is to spearhead collaborative efforts by experts in academia, clinical practice, industry, and government to accelerate development of practical technology for treating, monitoring, diagnosing, and preventing diabetes mellitus and its complications. In pursuit of its goals, DTS works closely with many government agencies, national organizations, and universities. DTS also maintains regular communication with developers and manufacturers of pharmaceutical drugs, devices, and software for diabetes care. DTS presents four scientific conferences each year, Diabetes Technology Meeting, Clinical Diabetes Technology Meeting, Digital Diabetes Congress, and MEDSec: The Medical Internet of things, as well as every other year the International Hospital Diabetes Meeting. Several thousand scientists and researchers from more than 25 countries regularly participate in these highly successful conferences. To disseminate the latest information on research developments and clinical trends in diabetes technology, DTS publishes Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology (JDST), which is indexed by the National Library of Medicine for MEDLINE/PubMed. JDST was the world's first purely electronic diabetes journal and publishes the most articles about diabetes technology of any journal in the world.
