Prologue: Spondyloarthritis Unmet Research Needs Conference IV
The Spondylitis Association of America (SAA) and the National Institute of Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) convened a conference on the campus of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) on September 28 and 29, 2023, to identify unmet needs in spondyloarthritis (SpA) research. The conference featured presentations by experts in areas of disease endotypes, pain, innovative imaging in SpA, health disparities in rheumatic diseases, and therapeutics. Members of the conference planning committee moderated the sessions and led the development of manuscripts summarizing recommendations to address unmet research needs. Early career investigators were invited to submit abstracts, which were presented at a networking session during the conference. Here, we highlight each of the sessions comprising the conference in the form of manuscripts published together as a conference summary.
