2025 ADVENT Forum | Remodeling in the Airway: A Damaged State of Affairs

• Define and characterize the concept of airway remodeling in the context of various chronic respiratory diseases.
• Identify the key cellular and molecular mechanisms contributing to airway remodeling
• Evaluate current and emerging diagnostic approaches for assessing airway remodeling.

Dr. Stella Lee brings together an unparalleled consortium of multidisciplinary panelists to discuss one of the most challenging and pervasive issues in chronic respiratory disease: the progressive and often irreversible structural changes within the airways. 

Airway remodeling, a complex cascade of cellular and molecular events, leads to compromised lung function, persistent symptoms, and a diminished quality of life for millions worldwide. This session, held at the 2025 ADVENT Forum, dives deep into the fundamental mechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnostic frontiers, and therapeutic strategies aimed at confronting this damaged state of affairs.
