Do you have experience of bronchopulmonary dysplasia? Join our new patient advisory group

The European Respiratory Society (ERS) is launching a Task Force to produce new clinical practice guidelines for the long term management of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

We are bringing together a group of individuals with experience of BPD to be involved in providing feedback to this Task Force. Do you or does someone you know live in Europe and would like to get involved?

Your role would be to work together with the other members of this patient advisory group and members of the ERS Task Force to represent the views of people with BPD to ensure that the experiences and needs of people affected by BPD are covered by the new guidelines.

We are looking for a group of 8-10 dedicated individuals with experience of BPD from a range of countries across Europe. This could be someone who has received a diagnosis of BPD or a parent or caregiver of someone with BPD. This project will run over the next two years (2016-17). You also need to be confident communicating in English and by email.

If you are interested in being part of this advisory group or would like some more information email Jeanette Boyd.
