The first course was held in Edinburgh, UK, in 2007, but since then it has been held in Lausanne at CHUV hospital on a biannual basis in June. Holding the course in a hospital allows access to patients and to equipment such as echocardiography, which ensures that workshops can be conducted live on real patients.Faculty and delegates of an @ERStalk course on PH and pulmonary vascular ­disease describe their experiences http://ow.ly/AzZ630hFjHV ER -
