International Conference of Chinese

Rheumatologists (ICCR) 2019

 

The ICCR 2019 was successfully held on 30th November and 1st December 2019. The ICCR is organised by the Hong Kong Society of Rheumatology (HKSR) and is one of the few occasions which renowned rheumatologists, clinicians and academic elites from Hong Kong, China and Worldwide meet together to share their insights and latest findings on rheumatology. This year, the conference included lectures on hot topics in rheumatology delivered by experts from both local and overseas and free paper presentations by young investigators. Particularly, the “Meet the Expert” session provided a platform for in depth discussions on specific topics with the international experts. In addition, there were booth exhibitions provided by local pharmaceutical companies.
