Respiratory Infections Sparking Chronic Diseases Industry Event
About the Event
Both chronic respiratory infections and chronic respiratory diseases take away the lives of far too many globally each year. While there are initiatives focused on specific infections and diseases, there are still many challenges associated with the synergistic relationship between chronic respiratory infections and diseases.
The Respiratory Infections Sparking Chronic Diseases industry event day aims to bring together members of academia and industry to showcase and discuss their expertise on diagnosis, pathophysiology and treatment nuances and techniques for both chronic respiratory infections and diseases.
The final session of the day will highlight the challenges associated with these synergistic relationships and together with all the participants through collaboration, a potential framework to provide the next steps to solve these challenges will be made.
