Infographic Competition - Infographic for Policy Makers
OARSI is collaborating with the Osteoarthritis Action Alliance (OAAA) to develop an infographic for Policy Makers. Policy Makers play a critical, influential role in crafting and enacting rules, laws, regulations, delivering guidance documents, and directing public investment in research that positively affects the lives of people with OA. The purpose of the infographic should be to convince Policy Makers that investments in OA research improve quality of life and increase productivity. This infographic will complement our previous infographic competition winner that targeted funders, researchers, patients, and health professionals. More information here.
Clinical Trials Symposium
OARSI hosted a popular and highly informative Clinical Trials Symposium on October 20, 2021. If you missed it, you may view the recording here. Your comments and feedback are very important to us and will help in planning future OARSI events. Symposium participants are encouraged to complete this online survey.
Board Update
Your OARSI Board of Directors met virtually on October 29 and 30 to discuss the 2022 budget, World Congress program, committee reports and the new Early OA Classification Criteria Task Force. The board elected new officers and determined the slate of candidates for open board positions that will be approved by the membership at the Annual Business Meeting during World Congress on April 7, 2022.
