Welcome Message
Thank you for joining us at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) Lung Disease Week, a forum designed to provide education and support for the millions of individuals living with respiratory, sleep-related, and critical care conditions. This week (June 11th-17th) is focused on the promise of newer technologies, like precision and personalized medicine, and what these advances may mean for improved lung therapies in the future.
Respiratory and related diseases are among the most common medical conditions globally affecting more than 500 million people. As one of the premiere professional societies focused on lung diseases, sleep disorders, and critical care medicine, ATS Lung Disease Week provides a platform for individuals to interact directly with experts in these fields to learn more about their conditions, understand the research landscape that drives advancements in their disease, and share their lived experience of these diseases with researchers and clinicians.
We are delighted you can join us for ATS Lung Disease Week "Adherence to Therapies and Devices” and invite you to participate in future ATS Lung Disease Weeks."
