AB  - Since 1989, an anticipated feature of the ASMBS Annual Meeting has been the presentation of the Edward Mason Lecture, delivered by a distinguished surgeon chosen by his or her peers. For the first time, the 2014 lecture was delivered by Edward E. Mason, MD, PhD himself. Dr. Mason shared his thoughts regarding the changes and growth in metabolic and bariatric surgery over the past 45 years.
