The virtual school on lung transplantation will provide state-of-the-art knowledge on a wide array of issues regarding lung transplantation. It will include innovative and interactive sessions such as pro/con debates or the study of cases from participants.
Through its basic and advanced-level programmes, the virtual school caters to the educational needs of participants with a basic and advanced understanding of the subject. Each programme will last half a day and it will be delivered online. All sessions will be recorded and made available to registered participants after the events.
