Autoimmune diseases, which include rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and inflammatory bowel disease - result from your immune system attacking your body instead of foreign invaders like bacteria or viruses.

Marlene Marte Furment, MD, an internal medicine resident at Saint Peter's University Hospital, will present a lecture on why autoimmune diseases happen. Dr. Furment will explain the common autoimmune diseases, their symptoms, and treatment options.
