This inaugural meeting, of what is hoped to be a long-running annual series, brought together experts in respiratory medicine to explore many of the issues and challenges faced by clinicians when managing lung diseases, particularly asthma and COPD. The aim of the series is to present and discuss innovative science through a scientifically balanced program, and to explore how recent developments can inform clinical practice and improve patient care. The program for the inaugural meeting emphasized ongoing work in basic, clinical, and translational science as it evolves to bring about a more complete understanding of the pathology of asthma and COPD.
