The 23rd Congress of the International Society for Aerosols in Medicine (ISAM) will be held in Boise, Idaho from 22nd to 26th May 2021.

The scientific agenda is focusing on the current understanding of pulmonary disease, viral transmission/risk mitigation, environmental aerosols, advancing imaging techniques, device/formulation strategies, emerging aerosol therapies and technologies with a focus on phages for respiratory applications.

From Dr. Reinhard Vehring, University of Alberta Prof. of Materials Engineering: "The conference is visited by many experts and practitioners in the respiratory field, so presenting phage therapy and development talks or posters there will reach an audience that could benefit greatly from an introduction to the potential of pulmonary or nasal phage therapy. I also think that an intellectual exchange between phage biologists and experts in respiratory drug delivery could be very beneficial for successful phage therapy via the respiratory route."
