Overview

The 2nd Annual Yale International Rheumatology Symposium is a day-long live Zoom webinar that will consider "reactive arthritis" in the broadest sense. We have recruited internationally recognized expert speakers. Starting with a session on classical reactive arthritis, we will then examine a variety of post-infectious inflammatory diseases, clinically distinct, but sharing potential pathogenetic commonalities. We will end with a consideration of the challenge of "long COVID" and the role of immune dysfunction in the perpetuation of this illness.

This symposium is intended for rheumatologists and trainees.

  6. Illustrate knowledge of innovations and advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory diseases
