CHEST 2005 is the only medical meeting that focuses on clinical chest medicine, including pulmonology, critical care, cardiology, and sleep medicine. It will take place Oct. 29 – Nov. 3 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and will host hundreds of national and international experts, and include innovative investigators. More than 1,000 advanced research abstracts and case reports will be presented throughout the meeting with an expected 5,000 attendees. It will also include approximately 350 original scientific sessions, honor lectures, and educational and satellite symposia that cover a broad range of pulmonary topics.
Dr. Levine is a fellow of the ACCP and received an M.D. from George Washington University in 1984. She was named one of the 2004 Best Doctors® in America. The Best Doctors® in America Database is based upon a biennial peer-review survey of 35,000 physicians nationwide who are asked to identify doctors in their respective specialties to whom they would refer themselves and their loved ones. Dr. Levine joined the Health Science Center 15 years ago and is the former director of the lung transplant program.
