🦋 Our final #EULAR2026 recap is here!
🌍 We started the day in the session “Next-Gen Treatments: CAR-based Therapies and Beyond in RMDs”, chaired by our Chair, Jeanette Andersen.
The session explored new therapeutic frontiers, but also the responsibilities that come with them. For us, one message remains essential: innovation must be developed with patients, not only for patients.
💬 Jeanette also delivered the PARE Meet the EULAR Expert session “AI as a Partner in Care: Empowering the RMD Community with Information”.
The room was packed, showing the strong interest around #LupusGPT and #EasyLupus as powerful patient-led, validated digital tools that help people living with lupus access reliable, understandable information in almost any language.
The many questions from attendees showed how relevant this topic has become for healthcare professionals, researchers, patient representatives and the wider rheumatology community.
🧬 We also followed the “How to treat SLE” session with George Bertsias, who focused on current and evolving approaches in lupus care, including treat-to-target strategies, remission or low disease activity, and the importance of reducing long-term organ damage.
🦴 Later, Edward Vital led the Meet the EULAR Expert session on “Management of joint involvement in systemic lupus”, a topic that matters deeply to many people living with lupus.
💜 A special highlight of the day was seeing Lupus Europe’s work recognised during the EULAR highlights another year.
These sessions take place at the very end of the Congress and bring together the key takeaways from #EULAR2026. Importantly, there are no parallel sessions at that time, which means there is no competition with other talks, and most of the attendees are in the room.
🙏 Thank you to everyone who followed, shared, visited us, spoke with us and supported us throughout #EULAR2026.
