Abstract
Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are diseases of the airways and other structures of the lung. Some of the most common are asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, occupational lung diseases, and pulmonary hypertension. CRDs affect hundreds of millions people and cause an immense health burden as leading cause of disability and mortality. Tackling respiratory diseases also poses enormous economic burden on national health care systems. Therefore, finding solutions to deal with the growing incidence of respiratory diseases requires a global approach integrating international efforts in health research and disease management in the area of respiratory diseases. Through its Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation, the European Union (EU) funds frontier research, basic and clinical research and innovative product development, and training and mobility of researchers.
