The annual congress of the European Respiratory Society (ERS) will take place this year from 4^th to 6^th of September 2022 in Barcelona as well as online. The ERS Congress is the opportunity to present and discuss the latest scientific and clinical advances in the entire field of respiratory medicine. We are therefore very pleased that the LBI Lung Health team, with the support of our cooperation partners, will be represented in large numbers this year and will present the latest data and findings from the LEAD study. In total, our team will present 9 posters and give 3 oral presentations. Below you will find an overview of all our presentations. Many thanks to all our supporters!
