THE BPRS SUMMER SYMPOSIUM
This meeting is the 14 th Annual Summer
Symposium in Paediatric Respiratory Disease.
It has an international faculty, and seeks to promote discussion and debate focusing on a single thematic area.
It is aimed at Respiratory Specialists and trainees, and the theme this year may well be attractive to paediatricians practicing respiratory medicine in various settings
The meeting is at The Nottingham Belfry, a comfortable ultra modern venue, with easy access, 1 mile from the M1and 5 miles from the city centre. There is a conference dinner on the
Thursday evening, which is included in the conference fee.
We believe that the audience contribution is a crucial part of the meeting, so the format has always been short, focused lectures by experts in the field, followed by plenty of time for discussion.
