History of Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group of Northern America (DPSG-NA)

DPSG-NA was founded in 1997 by a small group of Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialists with a distinct interest in diabetes in pregnancy. Since its inception, the DPSG-NA meetings have become a vehicle for the dissemination of data, gathered through collaboration among basic, translational and clinical researchers and care centers.

Only through a collaborative, multi-faceted approach can we ever hope to overcome the health burden and devastation that pregnancies complicated by diabetes can bring to a family by:

  • Bringing together healthcare experts and those still in training to learn about and discuss the major and timely issues related to diabetes in pregnancy. 

  • Providing a highly interactive forum for exploring new approaches to prevention, management and treatment of diabetes in pregnancy to improve outcomes of pregnancies complicated by type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes mellitus, and other cardiometabolic health risk factors.

  •  Promoting collaboration and initiation of new research in diabetes in pregnancy.


Promoting Safety, Respect, and Inclusion for All Learners

The organizers of the Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group Conference are committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for all attendees. Harassment of any kind—including but not limited to sexual, racial, ethnic, or other discriminatory behavior—will not be tolerated. All participants are expected to engage in professional conduct and treat others with dignity and respect. Attendees will receive clear instructions on how to confidentially report any violations to designated conference organizers, who will promptly assess all allegations and take appropriate action, which may include removal from the event. Information on how to file a complaint with the conference organizers (Christina Fontana & Scott Sullivan at INOVA Fairfax) will be provided, along with clarification that reporting to the conference organizers is not a prerequisite for filing with HHS OCR. Additionally, attendees will be informed of how to notify NIH of any concerns related to harassment or inappropriate conduct. The safety plan will be communicated in advance via email, included in the conference program, and posted prominently at the venue.

    Original Founders of DPSG-NA 
     

    E. Albert Reece, MD, PhD, MBA

    E. Albert Reece, MD, PhD, MBA is an OB/GYN (Maternal-Fetal Medicine) internationally recognized physician-scientist, and scholar; former Dean of Medicine and University Executive Vice President at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM). He has had a transformative 16-year leadership tenure at the University of Maryland (one of the longest serving Deans of Medicine in the US), where he has achieved great success particularly in research and clinical programs. As a result, the UMSOM is now in the top tier of research-intensive medical schools and ranked (US News and World Report) among the Top 10 public medical schools nationwide. 

    He is currently the Distinguished University/Endowed Professor and director of CARTI, and senior scientist in the Center for Birth Defects Research at the UMSOM. He and his senior investigator colleague lead an NIH multimillion-dollar research laboratory group studying the bio-molecular mechanisms of diabetes-induced birth defects. They have identified and patented key molecular mechanistic intermediates. In addition, signaling pathways, oxidative and ER stress, epigenetics and premature aging are determined to be key contributors to the etiology.  His scientific publications exceed 500 manuscripts, 12 books including revisions, and 5 monographs. 

    As one of the Founders, of the Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group of North America (DPSG-NA, he remains actively involved in conference programming, clinical and pre-clinical studies, and ensuring the study group’s longevity, scientific and clinical impact.

    Menachem Miodovnik (1946-2025)

    Menachem Miodovnik was an enthusiastic and larger-than-life presence in maternal-fetal medicine. For nearly two decades, Miodovnik oversaw research funded by a National Institute of Child Health and Development program project grant at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center (UCMC) and the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC) that showed that strict preconception glucose control could reduce reproductive failure, abortion, fetal malformations and maternal and neonatal morbidity, but many resulted in increased maternal hypoglycemia. His work resulted in hundreds of peer-reviewed publications on how to improve maternal and fetal outcomes for pregnancies complicated by diabetes. In addition to research, Miodovnik was a dedicated educator and mentor, who dedicated hundreds of hours as course director and instructor in local, regional, national and international conferences, also serving on a number of leadership and organizing committees. He was a keen proponent of bringing together professionals across fields, specialties, and disciplines to discuss and promote further research to improve the health and wellbeing of pregnant individuals with diabetes as broadly defined by type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and cardiometabolic health risk factors, and their offspring. He has been recognized by the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American College of Nutrition, the National Perinatal Association, the American Association of Birth Centers, and the organization he helped found, the Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group of North America.

    We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Menachem Miodovnik, a distinguished physician, researcher, and mentor. His dedication, expertise, and passion shaped our field and strengthened the DPSG-NA. Even in retirement, he remained a guiding force for young investigators and colleagues. To honor his legacy, donations will support a lectureship recognizing the DPSG-NA’s founding members. His impact on patient care, research, and mentorship will endure.

    Oded Langer (1943-2019) 

    Oded Langer was and continues to be internationally recognized for his outstanding contributions to the field of diabetes and pregnancy. He dedicated his 40-year career to promoting the translation of promising research findings into better clinical care for pregnant women and their children. His efforts to promote translational medicine include demonstrating that oral anti-hyperglycemic agents are safe and effective for managing diabetes in pregnancy; increasing our understanding the potential complications of diabetes for both mother and fetus; and helping to delineate the associations between levels of maternal hyperglycemia and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Dr. Langer contributed extensively to the literature in obstetrics, gynecology, and high-risk pregnancy through his extensive number of publications in both journals and textbooks. He was co-editor of four textbooks on diabetes and pregnancy and several journals focused on the topic. He also has served on a variety of journal editorial boards in this field. Dr. Langer was an invited presenter of the Norbert Freikel Lecture for the American Diabetes Association, named the prestigious Donnell D. Etzwiler Professorship, which is named after the late ADA president and former co-director of World Health Organization Collaborative Centers for Diabetes Education and Translation, recipient of the Andre Boivin Visiting Professorship at the Motherisk Program of the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto. received the Award of Research Excellence from the Society of Maternal-Fetal Medicine on multiple occasions and was repeatedly recognized as “teacher of the year” for residents’ instruction at both Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, where he previously taught and conducted research.
