ADA Removes Journal Editor from Conference Over Critical Editorial
By
Liz Neeley
Slow-proofed and worth the wait. Worth its weight in flour.
Summary
The article reports on an incident where the American Diabetes Association had police remove Dr. Steven Kahn, editor-in-chief of Diabetes Care, from their conference for distributing an editorial calling for colleagues to reject complacency and protect biomedical research infrastructure. The content appears to be a newsletter-style update covering this event along with other ongoing issues like the destruction of the Ocean Observatories Initiative.

· 3 pulledA few hours ago, the American Diabetes Association enlisted police to eject the editor-in-chief of one of their own journals from their conference.
His offense? Quietly distributing copies of his editorial in Diabetes Care that calls for his colleagues to reject complacency, halt the destruction of biomedical research infrastructure, and 'continue to believe in ensuring better health for all.'
Here's to Dr. Steven Kahn and everyone who is standing up and speaking out.
