"I have participated in OARSI for over 10 years and am delighted to accept the invitation to participate on the organizing committee for the workshop on clinical trials in osteoarthritis. The treatment of osteoarthritis represents a significant unmet medical need and there are several therapies in development for disease modification, so this workshop comes at a key time."
