This year’s European Respiratory Society (ERS) Congress will be a hybrid event and will take place from 9 to 13 September. There will be an in person event in Milan, combined with virtual online attendance. Delegates of both the in person and virtual event will be able to attend presentations and seminars covering a variety of topics in lung health, science and medicine.
Registration for the whole ERS Congress.
Registration for the Congress is now open and there are some free virtual registrations available for PAG members to give access to the most recent scientific findings across all lung diseases. These places are limited and will be subject to the following criteria:
- Be a member of an ELF Patient Advisory Group and not a healthcare professional
- Be based in Europe
- Able to attend online sessions considered relevant by other PAG members and report back on these sessions
- Willing and able to post about the event on social media, if a social media user.
If they receive more registrations than there are free places then they will decide based on ensuring a balance of attendees across different countries and representing different PAGs.
If you would be interested in a free virtual registration, please contact [email protected] by Monday 15 May 2023.
