ERS International Congress 2020: highlights from the General Pneumology Assembly.

The European Respiratory Society (ERS) accepted 4062 abstracts for presentation at the ERS International Congress in 2020. Although the conference was held virtually, making it possible to replay presentations, it remains a challenge to keep abreast of all the clinical and scientific advances. Therefore, this article provides highlights from the General Pneumology Assembly. Selected presentations from rehabilitation and chronic care, general practice and primary care, and electronic/mobile health (e-health/m-health) are summarised. The highlights incorporate novel findings from laboratory-based science, randomised controlled trials and qualitative research together with insights from newly available clinical guidelines.
