3rd International Joint Meeting on Thoracic Surgery

We welcome you to the Third International Joint Meeting on Thoracic Surgery that will take place in Barcelona, Spain, in November 2015. The rewarding experience of the [ First ] and [ Second ] International Joint Meetings on Thoracic Surgery held in the same city in 2009 and 2012 encourages all of us to work together once again with the purpose of celebrating the third edition in 2015.

The Joint Meeting 2015 will consist of a mixture of brief oral and video presentations comprising different areas of thoracic surgery and many other selected topics closely related to thoracic surgery and thoracic oncology, with special emphasis on diagnosis, staging and treatment of lung cancer. In addition, there will be breakfast sessions and lunch seminars specifically dedicated to relevant fields in thoracic surgery, and sessions of proffered papers in poster and video presentation format. A great effort has been made to present a programme with an outstanding content. In this meeting, particular attention has been given to the discussion time of the topics.

We hope you will honour us with your active participation in this Third Joint Meeting 2015. We are looking forward to seeing familiar and new faces among us. We count on you to make the meeting a real educational and scientific success.
