Scandinavian Congress of Rheumatology 2014. 20–23 September 2014 Stockholm Sweden
Welcome
Welcome to the 35th Scandinavian Congress of Rheumatology
On behalf of the Board of the Scandinavian Society for Rheumatology and the
scientific committee of the Scandinavian Congress of Rheumatology, we wish
you a warm welcome to the 35th Scandinavian Congress of Rheumatology in
Stockholm September 20-23, 2014.
I
t is a great privilege to host the 35th
Scandinavian Congress of Rheumatology
which is an important meeting place for
clinicians and scientists in rheumato­logy
in Scandinavia to exchange knowledge,
experience and ideas and to promote Scandinavian collaborations and networking. It
is a meeting where young and established
clinicians and scientists in rheumatology
meet across the Scandinavian borders and
it is an important educational meeting for
clinicians.
With the 35th Scandinavian Congress of
Rheumatology we have a new organization as the congress, for the first time, is
organized by the Scandinavian Society for
Rheumatology in collaboration with the
national host of the congress, the Swedish
Society for Rheumatology. The Scientific
committee represents all Scandinavian
countries and also young rheumatologists.
In the 2014 congress we collaborate with
patient representatives in Nordic Rheuma
Council, with Nordic Health professionals
and with paediatric rheumatologists from
Scandinavia.
The 35th Scandinavian Congress of
www.scr2014.se
Rheumatology has a focus on areas that
are of common interest in the Scandinavian
countries and the overall topic for this
congress is Prevention and therapy in
rheumatic diseases integrating biology,
life style and outcome. One of the goals of
this congress is to promote young scientists working with rheumatology research
and to promote interdisciplinary research
in Scandinavia. There is also a focus on
education in clinical rheumatology and
rheumatology research.
The program is based on plenary lectures with update on treatment, scientific sessions with introductory talks and
selected oral presentations from submitted
abstracts, parallel workshops where interest groups present topics for discussions,
and poster presentations with organized
poster tours. We want to emphasize discussions on how we can develop Scandinavian
collaborations in the future, all to the best
for clinical care of patients with rheumatic
diseases. To strengthen the educational
part of the congress there are two one-day
pre-courses; one with a clinical focus and
one with a research focus for PhD students

in rheumatology research. We are very happy to welcome all distinguished speakers
that kindly have accepted our invitation to
the Congress. This will ensure a high scientific level of the program. We are also very
pleased to have received a high number
of excellent abstracts of which some have
been selected for oral presentations and we
will have two large poster sessions.
A warm welcome to the 35th Scandinavian
Congress of Rheumatology and we wish you
all an interesting and interactive meeting!
On behalf of the board of the Scandinavian
Society for Rheumatology, the Swedish Society for Rheumatology and of the Scientific
Committee of the Scandinavian Congress of
