CCR THIEVES’ MARKET
Deadline Extended to March 15th
PRESENT YOUR CASE AT THIS YEAR'S CONFERENCE
On September 18th, 2025, join Dr. Alan Epstein at the Congress of Clinical Rheumatology (CCR) for the captivating Thieves’ Market, where attendees are invited to present challenging cases as “stumpers.”
This is a unique opportunity to share your most intriguing cases in a 15-minute presentation, including discussion, with a chance to win an audience-selected award for the top presentation. We encourage NYRIF participants to submit their abstracts to Thieves’ Market as well! Interested participants must be registered attendees of CCR and submit their case as a detailed PowerPoint presentation to thieves@ccrheumatology.com at least 30 days prior to the event.
THIEVES’ MARKET SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
Cases should be submitted as a PowerPoint file and include the following information:
- Name

Note: Fellows need to register to present a case. A fellow may present the same case at both NYRIF and Thieves’ Market, but the format would need to be adapted accordingly.
The following rules apply:
- Submit a truly unique case with extremely high educational value.
- Presentations must be in PowerPoint© format and should be 10 minutes in length, allowing 5 minutes for questions.
While there is an emphasis on pictorial displays of interesting physical findings or imaging studies, each case should include:
