Priyanka Iyer, MBBS, second-year rheumatology fellow, took second place at the American College of Rheumatology national meeting’s case-presentation competition in Chicago last month. Dubbed “Thieves’ Market: Show Me Your Best Cases,” the highly competitive event selects only six cases out of several hundred for presentation.
