LUPUS 2017 and ACA in Melbourne will showcase the very best clinical, biological and translational advances in SLE and Autoimmunity, building bridges between clinicians and basic researchers.
The 12th International Congress on SLE (LUPUS 2017) and the 7th Asian Congress on Autoimmunity (ACA 2017) will take place 26-29 March 2017 in Melbourne, Australia.
Autoimmunity is of course the basis of SLE – but also of so many other diseases. Rapid progress in basic and clinical research in autoimmunity has so much to offer the world of SLE.
LUPUS 2017 and ACA will showcase the very best clinical, biological, and translational advances in the field of SLE and autoimmunity. The joint congress will present an exceptional program focusing on the nexus between laboratory science and clinical translation, including multidisciplinary sessions on topics from B cells to nephritis, and offer a forum for the presentation of new data, including from young investigators who we especially encourage to be part of this congress. In addition, we hope for major collaboration with industry, as it is only by working together that clinicians, academics and industry can achieve their common goal of improving the lives of patients with SLE and autoimmune disease.
