The Story of PRA

It was 1963, and the Philippine College of Physicians (P*P) was invited to participate in a scientific meeting in Sydney, Australia. The delegate was to present an original work on any of the group of diseases referred to at the time as “rheumatism”.

Fifty years ago, relatively few physicians were known to specialize in the treatment of these diseases, let alone have an interest in investigative work in this still unnamed field. In fact, among it’s members, the P*P knew of only one.
