Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego, Seaport Ballroom FGH
Supported By: Sanofi & Regeneron


Please join us at ATS 2024 in San Diego for an educational symposium on the shared and unique pathophysiological features of type 2 inflammation–driven asthma and COPD and the real-world impact on patients.

Global experts Mario Castro, Nicola Hanania, and Stephanie Christenson will discuss pathomechanisms of epithelial barrier dysfunction, airway remodeling, and lung function decline, and will share their own perspectives and experiences from clinical practice managing lower airway diseases with underlying type 2 inflammation.

Don’t miss your opportunity to interact with the faculty during the live audience Q&A following the presentations.
