Thursday, August 15, 2024, 8:00 AM - Friday, August 16, 2024, 5:00 PM, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Turner Auditorium, Baltimore, MD

With an emphasis on the integration of basic, translational, and clinical approaches, the AASOG 2024 conference will focus on a central question: how can multi-disciplinary care, research, and education in sarcoidosis improve patient outcomes, reduce health disparities, and advance disease understanding? To address this central question, we have organized the program into a series of thematic sessions focusing on (i) development of multi-disciplinary teams and training multi-disciplinary experts (ii) health disparities in sarcoidosis (iii) clinical trials and outcome selection (iv) precision medicine in sarcoidosis and (v) advance disease management.

This activity will be available in person and via live stream.

1. Describe the components of multi-disciplinary teams in sarcoidosis.
2. Identify challenges associated with clinical trial design in sarcoidosis.
3. Compare different possible outcomes or endpoints used for clinical assessment in sarcoidosis.
4. Explain health disparities in sarcoidosis and identify possible interventions to achieve equity.
5. Describe use of omics in sarcoidosis.
