IGAS 2023: THE GENETIC FRONTIER OF SPONDYLOARTHRITIS
“From GWAS to Function: Decoding the Ankylosing Spondylitis Genome”
🗓️ Conference Dates: March 30 – April 1, 2023
📍 Location: Naples, Italy (Centro Congressi Federico II)
Academic Host: The International Genetics of Ankylosing Spondylitis (IGAS) Consortium
ℹ️ General Information
Welcome to the premier gathering of the global Spondyloarthritis (SpA) research community. The IGAS 2023 Conference represents a critical turning point in rheumatology: the shift from simply identifying risk genes to understanding their function in the immune system.
Held in the historic academic center of Naples, this exclusive summit brings together the world’s leading geneticists and immunologists. Unlike general rheumatology meetings, IGAS focuses entirely on the molecular engine driving Axial Spondyloarthritis. This course offers a deep dive into how the “Dark Matter” of the genome interacts with the microbiome to trigger inflammation.
-
Format: High-Level Scientific Plenary + Interactive “Young Investigator” Sessions.
-
Focus: Translational Medicine (Genetics, Pathogenesis, New Therapies).
-
Language: English.
👥 Target Audience
This advanced curriculum is designed for medical professionals and researchers operating at the cutting edge of immunology:
-
Academic Rheumatologists: Who need to understand the “Polygenic Risk Scores” that will soon guide prognosis in clinical practice.
-
Geneticists & Immunologists: Investigating the functional consequences of HLA-B27 and ERAP1 interaction.
-
Pharma & Biotech Researchers: Looking for the next generation of therapeutic targets beyond TNF and IL-17 inhibitors.
🎯 Learning Objectives
By analyzing the 2023 consortium data, participants will be able to:
-
Interpret Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS): Understand how cumulative genetic risk is calculated and its potential to predict disease severity in axSpA.
-
Connect Gut & Spine: Explain the causal relationship between the gut microbiome and entheseal immunity using Mendelian Randomization techniques.
-
Target the Misfolding: Evaluate the role of ERAP1 (Endoplasmic Reticulum Aminopeptidase 1) and its potential as a drug target.
-
Analyze Rare Variants: Differentiate between common GWAS hits and rare, high-impact variants found in multi-case families.
