The full-day, online-only program will facilitate critical dialogue among the global rheumatology community, said Evelyn Hsieh, MD, PhD, ACR Global Engagement Committee Chair. The Summit will explore topics and priorities that highlight innovative solutions around the globe and celebrate successful partnerships.

Experts will share new insights into immunology, bone biology, skin biology, inflammation and obesity, inflammation and blood clotting, neutrophils, fibroblasts, lupus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other topics in the more than two dozen basic science sessions, said Anne Davidson, MBBS, FRACP, Chair of the Basic Science Team for the Annual Meeting Planning Committee.

This year’s sessions have an intentional focus on integrating a health equity lens into patient care, research, and building partnerships in the field. The goal is to honor diversity and optimize dignity and respect while advancing the profession, said Jillian Rose-Smith, PhD, MPH, LCSW, Chair of the ARP/Interprofessional Team.

Unique spaces for relaxation and conversation will be dedicated to five areas of interest: Business of Rheumatology, Basic Science, Interprofessional Team (ARP), Pediatrics, and Workforce & Education.

Noelle A. Rolle, MBBS, and Julie Schwartzman-Morris, MD, MS, will moderate this all-day program that aims to fill gaps in medical education, address timely issues, and reexamine best practices in research and clinical care.

The misattribution of the term “imposter syndrome” is present throughout medicine and limits people’s ability to achieve their full potential. The label stifles creativity and innovation, to the detriment of researchers, clinicians, and patients, says this year’s Daltroy lecturer, Puja Mehta, MD, MBBS.
