2016 CAPRI Scientific Meeting: New Ideas, New Collaborations, New Knowledge Pathways

The Canadian Alliance of Pediatric Rheumatology Investigators (CAPRI) is a group of pediatric rheumatologists from across Canada who have come together since 2007 to promote research aimed at improving the lives of children with pediatric rheumatic diseases. The group has been studying the outcomes of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), exercise in children with JIA, development of child-specific disease self management tools, and rare childhood rheumatic diseases. At this meeting, attendees will create specific plans to include children with rheumatic disease and families into research, and new knowledge translation strategies informed by talks from experts in knowledge translation.
