Master Class 2023 – Exposures in a changing environment – working together to prevent airways disease

05 - 06 May 2023
  • Madrid, Spain

Welcome message 

We warmly invite you to participate in the EAACI Master Class on Exposures in a changing environment – working together to prevent airways disease, to be held in the lively city of Madrid, Spain, in May 5-6, 2023. 

In this unique opportunity, EAACI will gather experts in the field, including scientists and health-care professionals to discuss the latest approaches in aeroallergen monitoring; allergy, airway disease and environmental changes; pathophysiological mechanisms in immune responses; and prevention of airways disease in the context of climate change. 

This Master Class intends to reach clinicians and scientists who will access the latest findings, collaborate and consequently apply this knowledge in the service of respiratory health. EAACI assumes a commitment to create these key spaces to contribute to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of airways disease. 

Through this Master Class, we aim to develop the perfect platform for our growing community of professionals to develop a more holistic understanding of the complex interconnections between environmental exposure, climate change and the epidemiology of airways disease.  

We look forward to welcoming you to our Master Class 2023!  

Educational Aims 

This Master Class will provide novel insight into the health hazards of different air components from indoor, outdoor and workplaces, with special focus on allergy and asthma. It will focus on relevant compounds of chemical pollution and particulates, bioaerosols and their immune activating potential, as well as effects on allergies due to global environmental changes. Participants will gain a contemporary understanding of the clinical presentation, diagnostic work-up of patients referred for the investigation of difficult cases of airway disease and its correlation with environmental or occupational exposure.  

Target Audience 

This Master Class is intended primarily for clinicians, allergologists, pneumologists, epidemiologists, occupational and environmental scientists with some experience in treating and conducting research on airways disease.
