Partecipazione a corsi, congressi, convegni e seminari
Negli ultimi 10 anni ho sempre partecipato come relatore invitato ai convegni della Società Italiana di Reumatologia (SIR), American College of Rheumatology (Società Americana di Reumatologia) e European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR). Sono inoltre stato invitato a parlare a numerosi corsi o seminari organizzati dalle stesse Società.
