Meetings

COVID-19 Disclaimer

Dear friend of The Journal,

COVID-19 has truly interrupted the flow of our lives, yet we continue to push forward by making wise adjustments. With the public’s best interest in mind, our meeting partners are doing the same. Meeting dates and formats are being adjusted as the days go by. At the time of publication, meeting entry information was current; however, due to the impact of COVID-19, some information may have changed since then. Please visit the meeting’s official website to confirm our information.

The Journal of Rheumatology

Meetings in Rheumatology is a comprehensive listing of accredited and non-accredited CPD and CME conferences, webinars, and instructor-led and self-directed courses that meet an international scope of practice for rheumatology and related disciplines.

The Journal of Rheumatology updates this listing at the beginning of each month. We invite organizers of events relevant to rheumatology to submit their event information at least 3 months in advance of the desired month of publication. For more information, please contact meetings by email: meetings@jrheum.com.

For a PDF copy of the meetings, please see Meetings in Rheumatology.
