International Genetics of Ankylosing Spondylitis Consortium (IGAS) conference

IGAS is an international consortium of basic, translational, and clinical scientists dedicated to advancing the understanding of Spondyloarthritis (SpA), convening every two years for this important conference.

The conference aims to unite leading researchers, academics, and translational scientists from around the world to deepen our understanding of the genetic and molecular foundations of SpA. Key themes of the meeting include:

• Genetics of SpA

• Functional Genomics in SpA

• Insights from Animal Studies

• Mucosal Immunology

• Innate Immunity in SpA

• Adaptive Immunity in SpA

• Osteoimmunology

• Clinical Overviews


The past meetings of IGAS have been held in Oxford, Houston, Shanghai, Toronto, Palermo and Versailles. I am pleased to announce that this year’s meeting will take place in Rome, Italy, November 6 – 8, 2025.
We greatly look forward to your contribution to this important meeting.


Best regards,


Maria Antonietta D’Agostino
