The American Diabetes Association (ADA) is facing a boycott from its members, who have condemned the organization's leadership actions following the removal of five researchers from the group's annual meeting in June. In a notice effective immediately, the boycott's organizers state that the ADA provided inconsistent explanations, no apologies, and a lack of independent review of the events.
The editors of ADA's flagship journal, Diabetes Care, have joined the boycott, indicating that submitted manuscripts will not be processed until the boycott ends. Over 400 signatures have been collected, including those from past presidents, award winners, and individuals affected by diabetes. The boycott calls for an independent review of the ADA's structure and governance to ensure it accurately represents its professional membership.
