World Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Confernce 2012

In 2012 the International Federation of Psoriasis Associations (IFPA) will be holding the World Psoriasis & Psoriatic Conference in Stockholm for the third time, in cooperation with leading dermatologists and rheumatologists. The purpose of the conference is to elucidate the disease from a number of scientific aspects. At the first conference, in 2006, the focus was on clarifying the connection between psoriasis of the skin and psoriatic arthritis. At the second conference, in 2009, we moved on to present an aggregated picture of psoriasis as a complex, chronic, inflammatory disease that can affect several of the body’s organs through a number of co-morbidities.
