CHIREC est à la recherche d'un rhumatologue pour rejoindre son équipe médicale au site Sainte Anne Saint Rémi, situé à Bruxelles.

Participer à la réalisation d'une formation accélérée pour les infirmières en rhumatologie. Prévoir 3 journées: le 18 septembre 2024, une journée en janvier puis une en mai 2025

The presidents from organisations of health professionals in rheumatology from different countries gathered in Zurich to share best practices.

We would love a nurse to join our multidisciplinary team. The key responsibilities include attending our meetings, in Zaventem,  twice a year and most importantly co-selecting the projects that will be awarded a scientific research fund. The ideal candidate would have or be working on a PhD, but this is not a must. If you are interested, please contact Prof. René Westhovens: rene.westhovens@uzleuven.be

eMSK is a valuable educational tool that can further enhance rheumatologists' knowledge and skills in the field of musculoskeletal ultrasound.
