Canadian Arthritis Research conference Research Presentation Days: January 31, February 6, & February 14, 2023

Research Presentation Days: Jan. 25 & 31

Research Presentation Days 2024

In addition to the conference, the fourth annual Research Presentation Days (March 18, March 25, and April 2, 2024) provide a public platform for research presentations including systematic reviews, all types of original research, and evidence synthesis. These days are more intimate and allow for brief conversations and questions about the research with the CARC Scientific Committee and other research presenters. There will be expert tips for all presenters from the Scientific Committee.

Please download the PDF Research Presentation Days schedule for March 18, March 25, and April 2, 2024, and the Research Presentation Days Speaker booklet, below.
