Mount Sinai Respiratory Institute Presents:
Advances in Pulmonary Medicine Symposium 2026
Attending this two-day live event is a valuable opportunity for physicians to stay at the forefront of pulmonary medicine, expand their clinical expertise, and enhance patient care. With rapidly evolving diagnostic and treatment strategies, including precision-based approaches and biomarker assessments for asthma, COPD, and lung cancer, this event will provide practical, evidence-based insights that can be applied directly to clinical practice.
Physicians will gain valuable knowledge on managing complex pulmonary conditions such as interstitial lung disease, challenging asthma and COPD, lung cancer, and thromboembolic disease, while exploring advances in biologics, early cancer detection, sleep medicine, and benign airway obstruction. Through interactive presentations and multidisciplinary case discussions, attendees will develop strategies for optimizing care and addressing challenging pulmonary cases. This event is worth 9 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.
