Dear colleagues,
We are delighted to invite you to our BPIDG training course, aiming to teach non-immunologists how to recognize a primary immunodeficiency. During this 1-day course we will learn you the basics of PID and make you familiar with pattern recognition through interactive case discussions, blended with theoretical background when necessary. The course is available for all colleagues (internal medicine, pediatrics, GP’s, ENT specialists, dermatologists etc), experienced or still in training. The course will be led by some of Belgians most experienced colleagues in the field of PID.
