2024 COPD-iNET Symposium

2024 COPD-iNET Symposium

Next SYMPOSIUM 3-5 November 2024 Babson Conference Center, Boston, USA

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death worldwide, causing more
than 3 million deaths every year. However, effective treatments that would stem the destruction of the lungs
or help reverse the damage do not exist and have been difficult to develop. This symposium provides a
unique forum for young doctoral, post-doctoral, or established researchers to present their work, discuss
new methods, exchange cutting edge technologies, and to build collaborative relationships with their peers.
Experienced mentors will facilitate active participation of all attendees to be engaged.
The goal of bringing together experts in basic, preclinical and clinical COPD research from around the world
is to ignite new directions of research that will provide an avenue to build on the collective understanding of
this disease and help subtype COPD based on specific mechanisms. We hope this knowledge will translate
into novel therapies to reduce the burden of COPD for patients and society. We envision that this meeting
will advance the development of novel diagnostic methods to identify the people at risk and help initiate
studies for effective therapies that will eliminate COPD.
