The Center for Excellence in Pulmonary Biology's annual symposium aims to bring together leading experts, researchers, and clinicians to share insights, innovations, and discoveries that will shape the future of health care for children with respiratory conditions. Our goal is to bring together cutting-edge thought leaders to spark new approaches to curing childhood respiratory diseases.

Topics include:

• Genetics, including rapid genetic diagnostics and in-utero gene therapies

• The lung microbiome and metabolome

• The potential of glycoproteins

• Ethics and economics of pediatric pulmonary care 

• Sessions on asthma, CF and modulator therapies, and other chronic lung diseases
