Each person’s sarcoidosis story is unique. The FSR’s Virtual Global Sarcoidosis Summit is a virtual global arena offering a library of resources, countless educational booths and materials, and over 20 live and interactive virtual sessions with world-renowned experts in sarcoidosis.
This 2-day virtual event aims to empower patients, caregivers, and clinicians to work together to turn the page on sarcoidosis. Whether you are living with sarcoidosis or supporting someone who is, this summit is for you.
Throughout this event, you will have opportunities to meet and hear from others who are on a similar journey through our extensive virtual community discussion forums, networking sessions, and chat tools. You will connect with other sarcoidosis patients and supporters and receive access to the latest in sarcoidosis research and information to help you make informed decisions about your or your loved one’s care.

If you have joined us for past virtual summits, you will be pleased to know that we will continue to use the same user-friendly platform designed to promote interaction, engagement, and networking.
If this is your first time joining the virtual summit, rest assured that the platform will make it easy for you to create connections, find relevant sessions, and build your community.
Whether this is your first time learning about sarcoidosis or you have attended educational events before, you will find important information and insights in these sarcoidosis expert-led sessions.
This year we are proud to partner with clinical and research leaders from around the globe to address unique topics that are not commonly found in webinar series such as pediatric and juvenile sarcoidosis, sexuality and sarcoidosis, transplantation, and shared decision-making about care and emerging therapeutics.
Invite your friends and family! Having a community of people with different perspectives allows all of us to learn from each other and lean on each other during the sarcoidosis journey.
This event is for anyone who is impacted by sarcoidosis, whether you are living with the disease or love and support someone who is. All are welcome. Together we can improve the lives for all impacted by sarcoidosis.
With over 30 educational booths, you are bound to find the information and resources that you need to help you in your journey. You can bookmark and download guides and resources in order to help you and your loved ones navigate the complex waters of sarcoidosis care and treatment.
We want everyone to feel comfortable and be ready to make the most of this event, so FSR will provide a training on the platform that virtual “doors” will open four-days before the start of the Summit.
Early access allows you to check out sessions in advance, get familiar with the platform, network with other attendees, and visit exhibit booths to obtain vital information from FSR’s sponsors and partners.
