The IAMR group will present 20 projects at the conference ATS 2010
The ashes of the volcano Eyjafjall threaten assistance on the busiest international congress on pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine
Tomorrow, May 15, opens the international conference organized by the American Thoracic Society in New Orleans and several researchers of the IAMR group are willing to travel if the volcano lets them so. The representation of the group is remarkably significant this year. A total of 20 abstracts have been accepted.
Remarkably, in these 20 abstracts are represented almost all lines of research being conducted by the group IAMR. In particular, we will present preliminary results of 7 projects of the Line of Nosocomial Pneumonia, 5 of the Animal Model line, 3 of the line on Ventilator Associated Pneumonia, 2 of the line on COPD, 2 projects developed in the ICU and one that belongs to the line of Lung Cancer.
Until Eyjafjall emissions cease, the key to the immediate future of European aviation is the wind direction. The eruption of the volcano within a glacier has shown no signs of stopping since it began spewing ash on 13 April. The last time had erupted was from 1821 to 1823.
