Harvard Lung Conference
The Harvard Lung Conference, hosted by the Brigham and Women’s hospital with collaboration from partners at Massachusetts General Hospital, Beth-Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Children’s Hospital Boston, and the Harvard School of Public Health, will be held October 6-7, 2010 in Boston, Massachusetts.
This innovative conference will present the latest findings in a wide variety of topics related to pulmonary disease. Major topics to be covered will include the following:
- Stem Cell/Regenerative Medicine
- Omics/High Throughput Discovery
- Cellular and Immunological Basis of Airways Lung Disease
- Lung Injury and Vascular Injury
This conference will bring together top researchers in the field of pulmonary disease to discuss cutting-edge research and its implications for and implementation into clinical practice.
The conference will provide a forum for physicians and scientists alike to form new collaborations leading to previously unexplored directions for research in the field that will advance clinical care, and which will ultimately result in improved patient outcomes.
CIMIT Inhalation Technology Workshop
The CIMIT Inhalation Technology Workshop, held in conjunction with the Harvard Lung Conference on October 8, 2010 in Boston, Massachusetts, will emphasize the utility of CIMIT model in the field of inhalation technology.
The morning sessions will examine the current state of research and patient care and the future challenges and directions in:
- Asthma
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD)
- Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
The afternoon session will highlight the immense translational successes of CIMIT researchers. Most importantly, the conference will provide a window into how any researcher, in the Boston area and beyond, can become involved in this pioneering work through collaboration with other researchers.
In the last 12 years, the CIMIT model for inspiring collaboration amongst like-minded researchers and its repeated proven successes in translating discoveries in the lab into improvements in patient care have established CIMIT as the preeminent leader in the medical technology innovation field.
