Dear COPD Colleagues & Friends,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate, and more importantly to contribute to the success of COPD 2015 - 2^nd International Workshop on Lung Health, COPD: New Challenges, New Solutions, that will take place in the beautiful city of Valencia, Spain on February 19-21, 2015.

Following a very successful COPD 2013 meeting that took place in Monaco in December last year, COPD 2015 will be dedicated to the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and its impact on lung health, and will cover new updates and developments in the discipline, including important topics such as OMICS and COPD; major definitions in the area; COPD risk factors: not only active smoking; COPD complications; COPD controversies; pneumonia and COPD; exacerbations of COPD, and many other important aspects.

This congress organized by the International League on Lung Health (ILLH) offers a great opportunity to discuss these topics with the best international experts and practitioners, as well as to contribute your own experience. This congress is the perfect setting to get the most updated, state of the art information on the latest developments in research and clinical practice in the field of lung health. It also gives you the opportunity to debate on controversial issues, challenges, and solutions, and to bring your personal contribution to the area of lung health. For young professionals it is the perfect occasion to actively participate in the congress where you can discuss your research work with internationally renowned lung health professionals. And most importantly, it will give you a unique opportunity to bond and become part of the global network of the like-minded professionals and colleagues.

We warmly invite you to join us by sending your abstract and by taking part in COPD 2015. Do not miss this great opportunity to be an active participant of such an event!

We much look forward to welcoming you in Valencia!

Yours Faithfully,
