Dr. Danielle Berkovic has lived with psoriatic arthritis for the past 10 years. Due to living with the condition for some time Danielle became passionate about arthritis and musculoskeletal research. She undertook a consumer-led PhD from 2018 – 2021 examining arthritis-related issues specific to working-age adults, such as the work and financial impacts. Professionally, Danielle continues to prioritise consumer and community involvement in the musculoskeletal sphere. Personally, she is passionate about health advocacy and raising awareness of the impacts of arthritis and other musculoskeletal issues on younger populations. Danielle is part of the consumer advisory group for ANZMUSC, and is contributing to the Australian Living Guidelines for the Pharmacological Management of Inflammatory Arthritis as a consumer as well.
