Running on Air Engages Respiratory Community at ATS 2026 Conference
Representatives from Running on Air Foundation are participating this week in the American Thoracic Society International Conference 2026, where the organization is exhibiting and connecting with patients, clinicians, researchers, and advocacy partners from across the respiratory community. Located at Booth 2815 in a prominent corner location within the exhibit hall, the Running on Air team is inviting conference attendees to stop by, learn more about the organization’s work, and discuss issues affecting people living with chronic and rare lung diseases.
The first day of the exhibit hall brought strong engagement at the booth, with team members participating in conversations about primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), bronchiectasis, NTM, and supplemental oxygen. In addition to staffing the exhibit space, members of the Running on Air team attended educational sessions and research poster presentations throughout the conference to stay informed about the latest scientific developments and clinical advances in respiratory medicine.
Running on Air also acknowledged the many supporters and partners helping make the conference experience possible. The organization expressed appreciation to John for stepping in to help set up and staff the booth during the NTMir patient conference activities, as well as to NTM Info & Research and Amy for their continued support and collaboration within the respiratory disease community. Special thanks were also extended to Linda of Be Clear-A Self-Care Method to Living with Bronchiectasis for volunteering to assist during the event.
The American Thoracic Society International Conference is one of the world’s leading meetings focused on pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine. Each year, thousands of healthcare professionals, scientists, patient advocates, and industry representatives from more than 100 countries gather to share research, discuss emerging therapies, and collaborate on improving care for people living with respiratory diseases.
