In 2024, the European Workshop for Rheumatology Research (EWRR) celebrates its 43rd edition and will take place for the 1st time in Genova, Italy. The EWRR has a long tradition, it was started in 1981 and still is a unique event introducing new targets, biomarkers and pathways that have always been the broad basis for the development of a modern molecular pharmacotherapy of the autoimmune and inflammatory rheumatic diseases.

The programme will contain nine major scientific sessions and two keynote lectures. In addition, State-of-the-art lectures will be given by some of Europe’s most renowned researchers inside and outside the rheumatology field. Furthermore, there will be short oral presentations by young researcher of outstanding abstracts and guided poster tours. Like in the most recent previous editions, EWRR 2024 will start with a Thursday afternoon session, and until the Saturday afternoon closing ceremony, there will be sufficient time for poster visits and discussion creating an informal atmosphere for scientific networking and social interactions.

From some decades EULAR endors and supports the meeting with a number of bursaries and some EULAR Study Group Meetings take place prior to the European Workshop on Rheumatology Research (EWRR). Fees are low in order to let  young researches and fellows/students to participate.

We are confident and enthusiastic about welcoming you to Genova to celebrate this exclusive scientific event together, and we thank from by now for their contribution all the involved colleagues and supporters.
