29 September, 2023

Good afternoon,

Dear IPCRG Colleague,

September is always a hectic month in the respiratory calendar, and this year is no exception. We report on an excellent primary care presence in Milan at the European Respiratory Society meeting and at an Asthma Right Care summit we organised. We highlight new releases of our materials, and some key events coming up including an innovative Baton Pass for World COPD Day and the first ever World Oxygen Day. We are also delighted to announce the winners of the second round of our own research prioritisation small grants programme.
