Fundación Española de Reumatología

The Fundación Española de Reumatología (FER) is the non-profit foundation of the Spanish Society of Rheumatology (SER), dedicated to improving the lives of patients with rheumatic diseases. Based in Madrid, the foundation serves as a central hub for clinical research, professional development, and public health advocacy within the field of rheumatology in Spain. FER is responsible for managing large-scale clinical registries, such as BIOBADASER, which provide critical real-world evidence on the safety and efficacy of biological and synthetic therapies. The organization also funds competitive research grants and provides extensive training programs for rheumatologists to ensure the highest standards of medical care. Through its social and patient-oriented initiatives, FER works to increase the visibility of musculoskeletal conditions and promote early diagnosis.
