Date: 4/13/2010
Location: Galveston Island Convention Center

The 13th International Congress on Antiphospholipid Antibodies is a triennial meeting to showcase the latest developments and achievements in science and clinical care with regards to Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS). APLA 2010 will be the primary forum for worldwide interaction between leading researchers, physicians and other health professionals with interest in APS. The congress will include state-of-the-art lectures, selected abstract oral presentations, poster sessions, a pre-conference consensus workshop to re-evaluate and validate the Sapporo revised classification criteria and discuss un-solved issues such as treatment and diagnostics in APS. In addition, APLA 2010 will include pre-conference wet workshops where participants will be able to evaluate “hands-on” new tests proposed to help in the confirmation of diagnosis of APS, and discuss with experts issues on standardization of currently used assays.
