MRC WORKSHOPS

The Fifth Middle East Rheumatology Conference program has workshops incorporated to give our delegates the option of exploring and gaining a deep understanding of certain topics. These workshops are dedicated to a smaller-scale audience which allows for an intimate experience and understanding.

Workshops are available to delegates attending in person and are complimentary with the conference fee. The Nephrology and ILD workshops are also transmitted for Virtual Pass holders; the BMJ Case Report Workshop and the AI in Research workshop are held onsite only.
