1. Overview

The Harvard Update on Severe Asthma is a comprehensive continuing medical education program dedicated to the latest advancements in asthma diagnosis and treatment. Scheduled for 2026, this course provides practitioners with cutting-edge insights into precision medicine, the effective use of biologics, and the management of complex comorbidities to optimize care for patients with treatment-resistant and severe asthma.

2. Learning Objectives

• Evaluate and implement precision medicine approaches, including the selection of bi- and tri-specific antibodies for severe asthma treatment.

• Differentiate true severe asthma from clinical mimics such as tracheobronchomalacia and laryngeal disordered breathing.

• Assess the impact of environmental factors, occupational exposures, genetics, and comorbidities like GERD and obesity on asthma severity.

• Interpret advanced diagnostic tests accurately, incorporating new recommendations for pulmonary function tests and airway oscillometry.

3. Target Audience

Best for pulmonologists, allergists, and primary care physicians who want key updates on severe asthma diagnosis, biologics, and precision medicine.
