Exacerbations of bronchiectasis (in both non-CF bronchiectasis and cystic fibrosis) are common and are the major drivers of morbidity and mortality in these populations. Both bronchiectasis and CF are undergoing major changes with therapeutic advances and particularly the advent of modulator therapy in CF which is changing the frequency and nature of exacerbations. It is important to discuss the optimal management and prevention of exacerbations in these diseases.

What is a webinar?
A webinar closely simulates a lecture-based teaching experience. The speaker can interact with the audience, just as in a classroom setting. During the webinar, you will be asked to share your opinion on issues related to the topic using interactive polls.
