September 17, 2026 · 13 min

Show notes

The GRAPPA app has been rebuilt from the ground up to become a more complete resource for the psoriatic disease community.

In this episode of Inside GRAPPA, host André L. Ribeiro is joined by Daniela Tovar Bastidas and Laura C. Coates to discuss the thinking behind the redesigned app, the year-long collaborative development process, and how the platform has expanded far beyond its original focus on clinical assessment tools.


They explore how the new app brings clinical resources, education, research, events, and patient-friendly information together in one place, with tailored experiences for GRAPPA members, healthcare professionals, and patients. The conversation also looks ahead at how tools such as the Diagnostic Ultrasound Enthesitis Tool (DUET), multilingual access, and continued user feedback can help the app evolve alongside the needs of the global psoriatic disease community.
