/EINPresswire.com/ The similarities between the two conditions are juxtaposed with the subtle and important differences. Both pose unique and complex challenges, and these differences must be identified and isolated. As respiratory research continues to grow and prosper this event contributes further towards the understanding of how they can be dealt with in a successful and cost effective manner.
SMi present their 8th annual Asthma & COPD event to be held in London on Monday 16th & Tuesday 17th of April 2012. Building on the success of our previous Asthma & COPD, and COPD: Novel Therapeutics and Management Strategies events, this year will see an elite panel of speakers drawn for both industry and academia.
