Abstract
The Asia Pacific League of Associations for Rheumatology (APLAR) Young Rheumatologists (AYR) group is a network of young rheumatologists in the Asia Pacific region united to move forward in education, collaboration, and research in the Asia Pacific and beyond. AYR is an integrated part of the APLAR community, representing the full spectrum of rheumatology. The AYR Board first organized a “Social Media in Rheumatology” symposium at the annual APLAR Congress in 2021. This pioneering educational activity connected aspiring young clinicians from different countries and regions (China, Hong Kong [special administrative region {SAR} of China], India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom [UK]) to share their knowledge and experience on social media via focused presentations and live dialogue. The feedback was exemplary and has opened the gateway for future collaboration among different societies of rheumatology. In this special edition covering “Social Media in Rheumatology”, AYR proudly further presents this impactful theme for our rheumatology community. We are honored and very excited to collaborate with several impassioned young academics from the Emerging European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) NETwork (EMEUNET) and the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) in this particular issue.
