Lung Science Conference 2011

At the forefront of basic and translational respiratory science, this conference is an essential event for budding respiratory researchers looking to boost their career.

Educational aims

- To present the very best of international lung science research
- To highlight new discoveries likely to impact on the future of respiratory medicine
- To encourage debate and interaction between young postdoctoral scientists and established investigators
