HISTORY

A legacy of action

In 1935, a young man named Murray Kornfeld was recovering from tuberculosis when he had an idea for a professional society committed to educating clinicians and laypeople on chest diseases. He wasted no time hosting the organization鈥檚 first annual meeting and founding a monthly journal the same year. Fast forward to now, the meeting attracts 5,000 professionals annually, and the journal 糖心原创^庐 is one of the top critical care medicine journals.
