The virtual academy of adult respiratory medicine is intended to provide a comprehensive overview of each of the major fields of respiratory medicine based on the HERMES syllabus. This academy is aimed at all respiratory professionals wishing to update their knowledge, particularly those preparing for the European examination in adult respiratory medicine. 

Accepted and presented during the ERS Congress abstracts will be published in a supplement of the online version of the European Respiratory Journal Authors of highly clinically relevant cases accepted and presented during the ERS Congress will be invited to submit their case to Breathe journal for publication.

The objectives of this research seminar are to redefine severe exacerbations of COPD, review upcoming biomarkers and identify key interventional needs. This seminar aims to highlight severe exacerbations as distinct events, with important differences to mild and moderate exacerbations. The research seminar will allow inclusion and understanding of CICERO, an ERS Clinical Research Collaboration, and provide opportunity for participants to become part of the CATALINA study, an upcoming pan-European observational study.

Pneumo Update Europe 2021 is a congress where physicians will receive a complete update in Pneumology within 2 days. The most relevant clinical papers of the last year are reviewed. and put into perspective.

The purpose of this webinar is to share and discuss the clinical and pathological features of mild asthma  and   suggest useful attitudes for a better management of the patient.

The virtual school on lung transplantation will provide state-of-the-art knowledge on a wide array of issues regarding lung transplantation. It will include innovative and interactive sessions such as pro/con debates or the study of cases from participants. Through its basic and advanced-level programmes, the virtual school is aimed at catering to the educational needs of participants with a basic and advanced understanding of the subject.

The main objective of the seminar is to review the current understanding of lung function growth and decline in healthy populations and those with disease, among both children and adults. The aim is to evaluate factors that account for variation in absolute and normalised data, and in trajectories and trends over time. Finally, the organisers also aim to revise key and controversial concepts, as early COPD and asthma / COPD overlap that are linked to the different vital lung function trajectories.

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.

The aims of the session are to identify prognostic markers in order to predict disease clinical course and guide treatment of connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung diseases (CTD-ILD).   The audience will gain knowledge on the diagnostic/prognostic challenges and novel therapeutic advances in CTD-ILD.

The European Cystic Fibrosis Conference is the annual event hosted by the European Cystic Fibrosis Society, an international community of scientific and clinical professionals committed to improving survival and quality of life for people with cystic fibrosis by promoting high-quality research, education and care. 

To enhance CME and professional development of pulmonologists – to declare the Egyptian experience in dealing with pulmonary diseases, to exchange national and international pulmonary medicine practice experiences, to identify updates , debates and gaps of pulmonary medicine.

The ICC 2021 aims to educate physicians interested in CTEPH on the latest developments in this field including diagnosis, patient management, medical therapy and interventional treatment, to raise awareness of this rare diseases and to foster the global networking among health-care professionals and with patient organisations.
