Dear Friends and Colleagues
We would like to welcome everyone to the SSR-MSR 2021 Virtual Workshops in Rheumatology.
This annual meeting which alternates yearly between Singapore and Malaysia began in 1998. It has remained a platform for exchange of ideas, experience and knowledge, as well as a gathering of friends and colleagues from across the straits, and increasingly, with our collaborators and fellow professionals from around the region.
This year our theme is “Rheumatology in the 21st Century” which we believe is reflection of the challenging times we are all facing.
Through our pre-conference workshop and main programme, we hope to realise the purpose of these workshops in delivering expertise from local and international faculty right to your screens, wherever you are! The programme has been designed to be as interactive as possible, allowing for time differences and interface constraints.
We would like to thank our sponsors who have been extremely supportive in the face of constant change as we navigate through the evolving developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their generosity has made it possible to allow wider access to the SSR-MSR 2021 virtual workshops and pre-conference workshop at a nominal fee.
Thank you for joining us at the inaugural SSR-MSR 2021 Virtual Workshops in Rheumatology.
