This course is aimed at developing an epidemiological perspective that integrates occupational and environmental exposures into the differential diagnosis of major respiratory disease patterns, considering these exposures both as potential causes and as factors influencing recovery. The course will offer guidance on managing key exposure determinants that contribute to respiratory illness and participants will gain a practical framework for taking exposure-focused histories to better identify and address relevant factors in clinical practice.

This course is aimed at paediatricians and pulmonologists who want to gain a solid understanding of diagnostic and therapeutic paediatric bronchoscopy. The course focuses on the theoretical foundations of bronchoscopy, providing comprehensive knowledge of the techniques, indications, and interpretation of findings.

European Workshop on Bronchiectasis and Chronic Cough in Children and Adolescents brings together leading global experts to explore the mechanisms, diagnosis, and management of bronchiectasis and chronic wet cough in paediatric and adolescent populations. The workshop highlights emerging clinical trials, immunology and infections, physiotherapy and airway clearance strategies, nutrition, and real-world patient and multidisciplinary experiences.

To provide up-to-date information on the daily practice of pulmonologists, respiratory scientists and allied health professionals, in order to improve their knowledge-base, and, ultimately, to improve the overall quality of patient care. The information disseminated during the webinar should introduce the basic concepts and established techniques rather than scientific work in progress.

This three-part programme aims to train participants to independently perform thoracic ultrasound to diagnose and treat patients with lung diseases.

This course aims to improve the early and accurate diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary nodules by training pulmonologists in advanced image-guided navigation and biopsy techniques. Using advanced imaging-based technologies, clinicians can enhance navigation, perform safer biopsies, and potentially enable future local treatments, ultimately improving diagnostic accuracy, patient safety, and comfort. The course is specifically tailored for pulmonologists with advanced endoscopic expertise, who are proficient in basic bronchoscopy and have experience with cancer diagnostic procedures and endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS).

This course provides a comprehensive overview of granuloma formation as a non-specific immune response that can affect individuals of any age and gender. Participants will explore the genetic predispositions, infectious triggers, environmental factors, autoimmune conditions, and malignancies linked to granuloma development. Beyond disease-specific contexts, this course will present a cross-disciplinary perspective on the causes, diagnostic approaches, and therapeutic strategies for granulomatous diseases. By bridging basic science and clinical practice, the course fosters collaboration between researchers, clinicians, and patients to advance understanding and care.

The XIII International Workshop on Lung Health is an international meeting devoted to the last updates in Respiratory Medicine. The workshop will also cover, as per tradition, a wide range of topics in the field of respiratory medicine, such as respiratory infections, asthma, COPD and related pathologies. Following the request of participants, it will include key insights and updates on rare respiratory diseases like ILD, IPF, RSV, LAM, EGPA, Bronchiectasis and NTM. Hybrid realisation of the event with a LIVE Streaming.

This course will provide an overview of the field of Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs). Participants will learn which diagnostic procedures should be applied based on given clinical circumstances and will receive updates on specific diseases and treatment. This interactive course includes round table discussions from the faculty panel in Mainz, Germany. Course attendees will have the opportunity to present their cases and discuss them with leading experts.

This course will provide a comprehensive overview on the different eosinophilic lung diseases (ELDs). Participants will gain a fundamental understanding of eosinophil biology in health and disease, and updates to the management of ELDs.

Imaging is a vital tool in the diagnosis and management of pulmonary diseases. Techniques such as X-ray, computed tomography (CT), MRI, and ultrasound are used routinely in clinical practice. Today, clinicians are often the first to encounter these images, making it essential to develop a solid foundation in image interpretation. This course is designed to equip clinicians with the skills to assess thoracic imaging and recognise key abnormalities in the lungs, mediastinum, and pleura.

Promote real-life research in respiratory diseases and the improvement of patient care through the influence of guidelines with real-world evidence.

The Pulmonary Hypertension Masterclass will be focused on the early detection, diagnostic strategy (including ECHO and right heart catheterisation practical demonstration, and right heart catheterisation simulation) and therapy in patients with pulmonary hypertension. During Case Forum participants are invited to present case reports.

This course explores the distinct endotypes of severe asthma, focusing on underlying mechanisms, diagnostic tools, and treatment strategies. Participants will gain practical insights into inflammation, environmental factors, biomarkers, and comorbidities to support precision care in clinical practice.

ERS Satellites is part of a new initiative designed to deliver free, cutting-edge education using live-streaming technology, to share knowledge with a high number of respiratory professionals.
