We are excited to share with you highlights from this first Global Congress on medication adherence and behavioral science, which took place on October 20^th and 21^st. Abbott is addressing the widespread issue of non-adherence with a:care, a non-promotional connected health ecosystem that leverages behavioral science with digital tools to help transform the relationship between the physician and the patient. a:care is currently endorsed by international and national medical societies and supported by leading voices in the medical community.

As part of this effort to tackle non-adherence, Abbott organized this Congress, which raised interested to more than 25,000 healthcare professionals from around the world to connect to the event and about 10,000 participated in the live sessions . The Congress was chaired by Prof. John Weinman of King’s College, London, who is commonly recognized as a founder of modern health psychology, and welcomed renowned experts in behavioral science and communication, as well as world-class professors of medicine across therapeutic areas, to share their perspectives, experiences and patient insights about adherence and behavioral science.
