Dear Colleagues & Friends,

It is a pleasure to invite you to join us at the APLAR 2017 in Dubai.

Wide-ranging in its approach and comprehensive in scope, APLAR 2017 will present a vital scientific programme of high-level plenaries by a distinguished group of international, regional, and national experts, interactive symposia on contemporary trends as well as symposia organized by Special Interest Groups of APLAR, a review course, poster discussion and debates on hot topics.

Thus, the 2017 Conference will need the collaboration and cooperation of individuals from many rheumatologists in the Asia Pacific region and from all over the world.

The Congress will offer plenty of networking opportunities, providing you with the opportunity to meet and interact with the practitioners and clinicians, academics and scientists, nurses and allied health professionals as well as sponsors and exhibitors.

We will also take some time off from the future of rheumatology to celebrate the camaraderie of the congress with a lavish social programme, and I look forward to meeting each and every one of you in the global city and business hub at Dubai, a city known for its luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene.

Yours sincerely,

Prof Kazuhiko Yamamoto

President, APLAR
