Meet the Greats of Pediatric Rheumatology: Dr. Virgil Hanson

Dr. Virgil Hanson was a leading figure in pediatric rheumatology and helped advance the specialty in the United States. Alongside Dr. Jane Green Schaller, he co-chaired the first American Rheumatism Association Conference on the Rheumatic Diseases of Childhood in Park City, Utah, in 1976 — a landmark event in the recognition of pediatric rheumatology as a subspecialty. His work helped strengthen collaboration, clinical care, and education within the field.
