Dear Colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the 2026 NextGen Symposium, proudly organized by KBVR-SRBR, taking place at Van Der Valk Mechelen on January 9-10, 2026.
This symposium promises a unique and dynamic experience, with hands-on practical training sessions and interactive workshops designed specifically for rheumatologists in training, those in the early stages of their careers willing to expand their practical skills. We are committed to developing practical skills and knowledge that will empower you in your professional journey. The scientific program and speaker lineup have been carefully designed by the NextGen ACADEMY with the guidance and support of KBVR-SRBR to ensure a valuable and insightful experience.
We are also pleased to announce that we will request accreditation points, including points for ethics and economy for participants attending the symposium.
