Each year, DFCon gathers influential speakers and delivers outstanding scientific content. DFCon will not only do that, it will also present new opportunities for networking and many participants and speakers who did not yet have the opportunity to experience DFCon previously due to travel and resource restrictions will get the chance now with DFCon. As always, the DFCon conference allows the best in their field to come together and learn from each other. DFCon also serves as a hands-on, dynamic congress where delegates can use the experience to immediately bring impact to their daily clinical practice. You will learn more about the different topics and sessions on the following pages.

There is a challenge facing us: redefining the role of a medical congress in the 21st century. The physician from twenty years ago is different from the physician of today. Knowledge is now available at their fingertips. The information is no longer an end in itself, it’s a conversation starter. DFCon exists to facilitate this meeting of physicians where ideas can be exchanged freely. DFCon is widely acknowledged as being a leader in discovery. Next-generation endovascular therapies, wearable robots, spray-on skin, sociomicrobiology, smart textiles, phage therapy, augmented reality and injectable sensors have all made their debut at DFCon.

The DFCon program is designed for the wide spectrum of generalists and specialists who diagnose and manage the diabetic foot. Didactic talks, panel discussions, Q&A sessions, specialty symposia and workshops will delve into diagnostics and interventional strategies for diabetic foot ulcers and amputation prevention.Featuring a world-renowned international faculty, DFCon offers the opportunity to review state-of-the-art concepts and techniques.
