Room B Session 687 08:30 - 10:30
Symposium: Closing the gap: novel translational research strategies
Aims : This session will explain why respiratory research in 2016 will need innovation in translational models of disease. Specific
examples of how innovations in translational models of disease have helped to close knowledge gaps between basic and clinical
respiratory research will be provided. How organoids, 3-dimensonal in vitro models, and the lung slice technique can be used in
respiratory research to elucidate mechanisms of disease will be described.
