Professor Jean Roudier hosted this workshop in Marseilles (fig 1
) on the 27 February to 2 March 2003. The European Workshop for Rheumatology Research (EWRR) series of annual meetings was started in 1981 at Guy’s hospital in London, UK, by Gabriel Panayi and Peter M Johnson as a forum for scientific exchange between active investigators. In part it was intended as an alternative to the big, expensive, and industry dependent international congresses. Not least, it was a reaction to the style of the EULAR congresses of the time. The lecture hall in building 4 at Guy’s hospital was filled with about 75 participants, the registration fee was £5, and the abstracts were probably only distributed among the attendees.
