The American Diabetes Association Audit and Governance Committee Releases Independent Review
Five volunteer investigators found attendees were removed for repeated disruptions, not censorship, and said ADA staff did not call New Orleans police.
- The American Diabetes Association Audit and Governance Committee released an independent review on Tuesday of events from June 5, 2026, at the Scientific Sessions in New Orleans.
- Public frustration centered on allegations that the ADA censored attendees distributing critical editorials and called the New Orleans Police Department to intervene against members during the conference.
- The review found no merit to censorship claims, as the editorial appeared in Diabetes Care; security personnel were contracted staff, not law enforcement summoned by the organization.
- CEO Charles Henderson apologized for the distress caused that day, acknowledging missed communication opportunities while affirming that adherence to the conference code of conduct remains essential.
- The association aims to unify members against proposed federal research funding cuts, asserting that time spent contesting one difficult day distracts from critical advocacy work ahead.
