Forum, Medical research organization in Stockholm Municipality, Sweden
Forum is a medical research organization based in Stockholm that operates six centers across southern Sweden. The organization collects and analyzes data from thousands of patients to understand how joint disease develops and responds to treatment.
Forum was founded in 1989 alongside the launch of the BARFOT study, a major long-term research project that changed how Swedish doctors study joint diseases. This early initiative established the foundation for decades of work gathering patient information and testing new approaches.
The organization promotes collaboration between medical institutions while emphasizing patient feedback and experiences to shape future research directions and treatment methods.
The organization works with patients and healthcare providers to share research findings and treatment recommendations. Contact the center directly to learn about participating in studies or accessing information about available therapies.
The Forum's research indicates distinct differences in disease progression between male and female patients, leading to specialized treatment recommendations based on gender.
