title: International Workshop on the Epidemiology of Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus.
abstract: The International Workshop on the Epidemiology of Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus was held in October of 1983 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This workshop, the first of its kind to focus specifically on the epidemiology of insulin-dependent diabetes (IDDM), was sponsored jointly by the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation (JDF), the Pennsylvania Department of Health, and the Centers for Disease Control. The purpose of the workshop was to delineate epidemiologic research needs in IDDM; to foster interaction among disciplines to conduct this research; and, specifically, to recommend priorities for population-based epidemiologic research.
