Research is constantly increasing our knowledge about arthritis. That knowledge in turn has the potential to transform people’s lives – by investigating the causes of the condition, treatments, potential cures, lifestyle factors, genetics and a whole lot more.

We want to ensure that this research meets the most pressing needs of people living with arthritis.

Arthritis Ireland, together with researchers at UCD and the University of Limerick, are asking you to tell us what areas of arthritis research would make the greatest difference to your life.

What would your top 10 research questions be? New medications? The impact of diet on arthritis? The impact on mental health? The role of lifestyle factors? Genetics?
