APSR Teaching Library Case Submission Award

Collation date: 1 June 2024

The APSR Teaching Library is a virtual collection of clinical cases in Respiratory / Critical Care Medicine for the education of our colleagues. Most of them have a clinical scenario followed by a picture/video of an X-ray/CT-scan or bronchoscopic images or video, followed by one best answer type question and a short discussion. Currently, we have over a hundred cases since its launch in 2015. Submitted cases have to be approved by both relevant Assembly leadership and the Library Subcommittee (Education Committee) before going into the Library. The cases must not have already been published or presented elsewhere prior to the submission.

As in previous years, the APSR is offering you a chance to enjoy discounted registration fee to attend the APSR 2024 Hong Kong Congress by submitting your cases to the Library. Once your submission is approved for the APSR Teaching Library, you will be considered for a 50% reduction of the registration fee. The top 10 members who have submitted and were approved the most number of cases by 1 June 2024 are entitled to the discount.

There is no maximum number of cases that can be submitted by any member and approved.

Please submit your cases at apsresp.org/education/teaching-library/index.php

  • Must attend the Congress.
  • Cannot win multiple awards at the same APSR Congress (except the Respirology Case Reports Poster Award), nor have other travel support for the same APSR Congress.
