International Exercise & Breathing Conference 2023

Hosted by the University of Denver and National Jewish Health, the fifth international EILO/ILO conference will be held June 5-6, 2023. The conference will be held at the University of Denver.

Conference Vision

The conference will provide a forum for global partnership formation and knowledge sharing related to the basic science, diagnosis, and treatment of exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO). To facilitate interactions between audience groups with related interests, the 2023 conference will also focus on inducible laryngeal obstruction (ILO) and the use of exercise physiology in the management of patients with breathing problems.

Objectives

Share scientific knowledge and hands-on skills related to the science, diagnosis, and treatment of EILO.
Explore, through lectures and practical sessions, approaches to better understand and care for patients affected by ILO outside of exercise.
Utilize exercise physiology measurements and interventions to better care for patients with breathing challenges in exercise.

Conference Format

The 2-day conference will feature an entire day devoted to EILO and a second day devoted to both ILO and exercise diagnostics and interventions. On the second day, attendees will have the option to focus on an entire track related to ILO, a track related to exercise physiology, or split time between the two tracks. The mornings will be devoted to lectures and discussion. Hands-on workshops in smaller groups guided by global experts will be featured in the afternoons. Posters will be on display during unstructured time.

Attendance will be limited to 250 in-person attendees.

Virtual attendance for the morning sessions is available (afternoon workshops will not be live streamed).
