Press invitation to the 7th IFPA Conference

IFPA, the International Federation of Psoriasis Associations, invites you to cover the 7th IFPA Conference at Stockholm Waterfront Congress Centre, June 27-29, 2024. The theme of the conference is “Uncovering the broad spectrum of psoriatic disease”.

This summer, world-leading experts within dermatology and rheumatology will be gathering in Stockholm to share significant achievements in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of psoriatic disease. Together with attendees they will also discuss where to focus future efforts across the spectrum of basic, translational, and clinical research to bring discoveries and novel therapies. The topics will be clinically relevant, globally collaborative, and patient centric.

IFPA Conference (previously known as World Psoriasis & Psoriatic Arthritis Conference) is an established scientific conference organized by IFPA. It presents the latest developments in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis research. Because medical professionals from both the dermatology and rheumatology field attend, the conference provides a unique cross-specialty forum. Delegates can explore psoriatic disease from different perspectives by networking with patients and industry representatives in attendance.
