42nd AGM & Conference
SABC 42nd Annual AGM & Scleroderma Conference
Join the SABC for our 42nd AGM & Conference on Saturday, October 24, 2026, in Burnaby, BC.
Bringing together people affected by scleroderma, researchers, healthcare professionals and members of the SABC community, this year’s conference offers a full day of learning, connection, scleroderma research and community.
Hear from Dr. Hyein Kim about Raynaud’s phenomenon in systemic sclerosis, and learn about the latest research and discoveries from the SABC Research Project with Dr. James Dunne, Dr. Kevin Keen and student researchers. The day will also feature Yoga for Scleroderma with Teressa and a Patient Panel, bringing together real experiences and perspectives from people living with scleroderma.
We’ll recognize the recipient(s) of the Lihong Yang Memorial Scholarship, celebrate SABC’s continued investment in Canadian scleroderma research, and provide opportunities to meet and connect with others throughout the day.
Following the conference, join us for a Social Hour and connect with people affected by scleroderma from communities across British Columbia.
