From 16–18 September, 2016, physiotherapists in Spain had the chance to gain a level 1 qualification in Autogenic Drainage thanks to a training course organised by Fundación Respiralia.

Patients and families affected by Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency came together to share their experiences and hear the latest developments in Alpha-1 research, treatment and care at the annual Alpha-1 UK Support Group meeting.
