Research Seminars

About

Research Seminars gather a small number (20 to 100) of well-established and preferably young investigators to address scientific topics in depth and help break new ground. Research Seminars take place over two days in easy-to-reach European cities. They are scientific Seminars involving recently published work and research in progress. Participation is fully supported by the budget granted by the ERS.

ERS Summit on priorities in respiratory medicine

The European Respiratory Society organised a Summit on priorities in medicine with the objectives of determining the place of respiratory medicine (practice and research) in the broader context of medical practice and research in Europe and in the world and to make recommendations for the future of respiratory medicine (practice and research). This will lead to a Roadmap of Respiratory Medicine which should contain recommendations and action plans for health policy makers.
