The immunology of respiratory disease and tuberculosis 2017

The immunology of respiratory disease and tuberculosis is organized by The Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) and would be held on Jun 26, 2017 at The Royal Society of Medicine, London, England, United Kingdom. This CME conference has been approved with 5 CPD Points.

This meeting aims to explore the relationship between the immune system, the respiratory tract and the pathogens which threaten both.

This meeting will cover:


• The immune system and immune deficiencies
• Immunology of respiratory disease
• Current work on TB vaccines
• How to improve the prediction development of tuberculosis disease
• How complex immunological defences maintain the health of the respiratory tract
• How structural disease, Vitamin D deficiency and genetic immunodeficiencies can lead to infectious episodes and other serious respiratory complications


Objectives
By the end of this meeting you will: • Know about the immune system, immune deficiencies and the immunology of respiratory disease • Have a knowledge of current work on TB vaccines • Examine how to improve the prediction development of tuberculosis disease • Know how complex immunological defences maintain the health of the respiratory tract • Understand how structural disease, Vitamin D deficiency and genetic immunodeficiency’s can lead to infectious episodes and other serious respiratory complications
