Session submission

We'll be carrying over some of our brilliant sessions from the 2020 programme so for next year would particularly welcome submissions on the following areas related to COVID-19:

The science of COVID-19
Registry and other data on the epidemiology of COVID-19 and the management of patients
Rheumatology involvement in post-COVID-19 treatment
Changes in service provision (including virtual consultations)
Impact on clinical staff (which could include aspects of mental health and effects on training)

Session proposals on other topics are possible, but as there are only a small number of session slots the available priority will be given to sessions presenting significant new data and information from the last 12 months.
