Next Course in October 2024.
This is a course which will take place in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from Friday, 25 October 2024 to Sunday, 27 October 2024. Course Description
For rheumatology and medicine in general it holds true that only well-educated and well-trained medical doctors can comprehensively and rapidly translate recent advances in clinical medicine in order to achieve the best clinical outcomes that improve the quality of our patients´ lives. Therefore, education and training are necessities for success. At the same time, they represent a complex matter since modern and effective training methods and techniques are used to continuously teach new facts, theories and book-knowledge, refresh memories, and gain and improve practical skills.In this regard, our 4th EULAR Autumn Course Days has been designed to explore new avenues in education by purposely mixing modern teaching formats. Our course aims to provide insights into several different diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of the modern management of RMDs but also addresses current controversies in these fields through a series of interactive debates, round-table discussions, workshops, and seminars.
In this unique 3-day course, attendees will have an opportunity to network and have
intensive interactions with experts in the field in Meet the Expert sessions. They will also
be able to discuss with the main authors of recently published EULAR recommendations
about the way they were developed and listen to authors who have recently published
important articles talk about their work. The interactive and open way of discussion will
permit to participants to present their own ideas and ask questions during round table
discussions. Evaluation and feed-back from participants and instructors will be collected in
order to further optimise future events designed in this modern teaching format.
