Abstracts

GRAPPA develops future thought leaders by hosting an annual Trainee Symposium each year during the GRAPPA Annual Meeting. Abstracts from around the world are submitted and the best are chosen to present.

The trainee symposium promotes the dissemination and discussion of research related to dermatology and rheumatology clinical, translational, and basic science proposals.

Sixteen abstract submissions were selected for poster presentations and five were selected for oral presentations at the 2024 GRAPPA Annual Meeting and Trainee Symposium held in Seattle, Washington, USA on July 11-13.
