Abstract
At the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA) 2023 annual conference and trainee symposium, the status of psoriatic disease (PsD) biomarkers was discussed in a workshop. The significant heterogeneity of PsD causes disease management to be very challenging, but biomarkers can prove helpful in disease diagnosis, stratification, and precision medicine. Although a few potential biomarkers have been discovered, none have been fully validated. Recent studies have used omic technologies that show promise but need further verification and validation. Many challenges remain, but the anticipated results of studies being conducted by recently established large consortia may lead to the identification of clinically actionable biomarkers.

The Journal of Rheumatology is a monthly international serial edited by Earl D. Silverman. The Journal features research articles on clinical subjects from scientists working in rheumatology and related fields, as well as proceedings of meetings as supplements to regular issues. Highlights of our 41 years serving Rheumatology include: groundbreaking and provocative editorials such as "Inverting the Pyramid," renowned Pediatric Rheumatology, proceedings of OMERACT and the Canadian Rheumatology Association, Cochrane Musculoskeletal Reviews, and supplements on emerging therapies.
