Abstract

The 8th edition of the International Congress on Autoimmunity took place in the beautiful and historical city of Granada, Spain, from 9 to 13 March 2012. It gathered more than 2350 participants from 71 different countries, including internists, immunologists, rheumatologists, basic researchers and many other clinicians and laboratory people interested in autoimmune diseases who were updated with the latest available diagnostic tools and new therapeutic avenues. This top international autoimmunity meeting put together an international faculty of more than 100 experts to present a high-level scientific program under the leadership of Professor Yehuda Shoenfeld (Zabludowicz Center for Autoimmune Diseases, Tel-Hashomer, Israel) who chaired the congress together with Ricard Cervera (Hospital Clínic, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain), Angela Tincani (University of Brescia, Italy) and Carlos Vasconcelos (Hospital S.
