Profile of:

John Londono


John Londono is a physician from the Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, with a degree in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology from the Universidad Militar Nueva Granada. He has a Máster degree in Medical Sciences from the Universidad Autónoma de México and Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Médicas y Nutrición Salvador Zubirán and a PhD in Applied Medical Investigation from the Universidad de Navarra and Centro de Investigación Médica Aplicada in Pamplona, Spain. Doctor Londoño is a full professor in the Universidad de La Sabana and is the developer as well as the current academic head of the rheumatology fellowship from the Universidad de La Sabana. He is a clinical professor from the Universidad Militar Nueva Granada in the rheumatology department and leads the GESPA research group (classified as A by MINCIENCIAS). He is also classified as a Senior Researcher by the same entity and serves as member of the editorial committee of the Revista Colombiana de Reumatología. Doctor Londoño’ s studies focus in the study on Spondyloarthritis in Colombian population, its clinical characterization, clinical and radiological progression and its association with predisposing genetical factors. He is the author of multiple publications in national and international indexed journals. Currently, Doctor Londoño and his research group is working on the undifferentiated, axial non-radiographic and peripheral spondylarthritis subtypes a common clinical presentation in Latin American populations and that need to be contextualized in light of the actual classification criteria of the disease.
