Please also consider submitting an abstract before the deadline of 1^st September 2022. You can do so by emailing Wendy.Grunson@newcastle.ac.uk .   Your abstract should be presented on a single side of A4. One figure or table may be included.

We especially encourage rheumatology trainees from around the region to submit abstracts of notable clinical cases (in general rheumatology as well as vasculitis management conundrums) for presentation and discussion. If you are a trainee, please consider doing this (and provide encouragement if you are a consultant; you are also welcome to present cases yourselves!) It’s a fantastic opportunity to exchange expertise with interested peers and gain experience of presenting. Please also ensure that trainees working at your centre are able to cancel their clinics for the day, mindful that the date is shortly after the rotation date for some.
