Dear Colleagues and Esteemed Guests,
It is with great honor and pride that I welcome you to the Gulf Thoracic Forum 2027, hosted this year by the United Arab Emirates.
This distinguished regional gathering reflects the strong spirit of collaboration among our Gulf nations—United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Oman—united by a shared commitment to advancing excellence in thoracic and respiratory medicine.
As respiratory diseases continue to pose significant health challenges across our region, the importance of unified scientific dialogue, research collaboration, and clinical innovation has never been greater. The Gulf Thoracic Forum serves as a vital platform for exchanging knowledge,
harmonizing best practices, and strengthening partnerships that enhance patient care across the GCC.
The 2027 scientific program has been carefully curated to feature leading regional and international experts, delivering high-level discussions on emerging research, advanced diagnostics, therapeutic innovations, and evolving standards of care. Through plenary lectures, symposia, case-based sessions, and interactive forums, we aim to inspire progress and foster meaningful professional connections.
Hosting this Forum in the UAE reflects our dedication to promoting academic leadership, multidisciplinary collaboration, and continuous professional development within the field of thoracic medicine.
I warmly invite you to join us for what promises to be an impactful and forward-looking Forum that strengthens our shared vision for respiratory healthcare excellence in the Gulf region.
We look forward to welcoming you.

Warm Regards,
