THE WORLD BRONCHIECTASIS & NTM CONFERENCE
The World Bronchiectasis & NTM Conference’s first edition was organized in the summer of 2016 and since then it became a biennial tradition among the small but very committed world community of scientists and experts in the field. They will meet again in 2022 to exchange and learn about the novelties in diagnosis, management and treatment of these complex pathologies which are still often misdiagnosed and even more often overlooked.
The “concept” of the Conference is to spread the knowledge in regards to the World Respiratory Medicine, Infectious Diseases and related Specialists, enhance the understanding of the physiopathology, epidemiology and management outcomes and attract attention to the need to share knowledge and especially experience and the demand for further research emerges.
The focus is on the “hot topics” of the moment and the suggestion of the attendees, as this Conference series is a place to get updates, acquire new knowledge, learn new approaches and discover new insights to be immediately applicable in daily clinical practice.
The main target is the Specialists in Respiratory Medicines, Infectious Diseases, Internal Medicine, Microbiologists, Pediatricians and Radiologist, but also other specialists as well as trained nurses and physiotherapists can benefit from the active learning structure of the Conference.
Every personal experience is enriched by the exchange between generations, different cultures, clinical approaches and various national health systems and some of the valuable relationships that occurred during the conference last over years.
In this international environment, the Conference gives the opportunity to young doctors, researchers and clinicians to participate in Young Generation initiatives such as the “Rising Stars Programme” and the “Call for Oral Presentations and Abstracts”. These programs aim to help the next generation of these specific fields to boost their career and receive personal feedback from the Presidents and Chairmen.
