The Italian Society of Rheumatology (SIR) will provide 30 grants to participants selected for oral or poster presentations which have reached a high score and found to be particularly meritorious by the Referees.

Only the presenter of a selected abstract will be eligible for the grant and he/she should be a SIR member, younger than 40 years old and in good standing with the membership fees (2021 included).

The grant of € 500,00 gross will be recognized directly by SIR to the authors of selected abstracts after the congress. The winners are bound to join the conference and pay the registration fees.

The winners will be contacted by the Organizing Secretariat at the end of July in order to give them all the instructions.
