The Winter Lung Series Conferences (WLSC), held in conjunction with the UA Health Sciences Asthma and Airway Disease Research Center and UA BIO5 Institute, brings in nationally and internationally renowned physician-scientists to discuss the latest research in various fields of pulmonary medicine and share those emerging ideas and clinical advances with our faculty, fellows and residents in training at the UA Health Sciences colleges, as well as community physicians.

This event is being held jointly with the UA Department of Medicine and the DOM Research Seminar Series, which was launched in the fall of 2016 to spotlight the wide range of innovative research being done across the department's 14 divisions. One of six original departments in the UA College of Medicine - Tucson, our department is the college's largest, with more than 200 faculty physicians, 130 residents in training in internal medicine and 70 fellows in advanced training in all its subspecialties from cardiology to rheumatology.
