The Irish Society for Rheumatology

The Irish Society for Rheumatology (ISR) consists of about 150 members with specialist training in Rheumatology. This includes consultants, trainees, scientists, and researchers. The Society has members from the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, the UK, and beyond.

The ISR is a registered charity. We organize regular platforms and conferences for members to present clinical and scientific material.

The Society promotes ongoing education and training in Rheumatology at all levels. We focus on postgraduate professional training and higher medical training in particular.
