Rheumatology can be a really exciting area of study to be involved in with many rare and interesting diseases out there – it’s definitely not just Arthritis! In fact rheumatologists are engaged in a whole host of areas: • Inflammatory joint disease • Degenerative joint disease • Autoimmune disease • Back problems • Chronic inflammatory diseases • Soft tissue disorders • Metabolic bone disorders • Crystal arthropathies • Musculoskeletal infections • Paediatrics
We hope RheumSoc will be a fun and welcoming space to bring together students interested in Rheumatology
