You are invited to the 2027 BLA Conference
Dear Colleagues,
I am absolutely delighted to invite you to the BLA Conference 2027, taking place on 24 September at the Royal Society of Medicine in London.
What makes the BLA Conference so valuable is that it brings the whole laryngology community together. Whether you are an ENT surgeon, Speech and Language Therapist, Respiratory Physician, Gastroenterologist, trainee or allied health professional, there will be something here that is directly relevant to you and, I hope, something you can take away and use in your practice.
We have a fantastic scientific programme planned, with keynote lectures, research presentations and practical case discussions. We will explore paediatric voice disorders, chronic cough, breathing pattern disorders, manometry and endoscopic techniques, alongside emerging research from across our field. There will be plenty of opportunities for discussion and debate, and for colleagues from different specialties to learn from one another.
Supporting new research is vital to the future of laryngology, so if you have work to share, I would strongly encourage you to submit an abstract. It is a brilliant opportunity to present your ideas, contribute to the conversation and connect with colleagues across the profession. Full submission details are available here.
Of course, the conference is about more than the programme. It is also a chance to catch up with old friends, meet new colleagues and have the conversations that so often lead to fresh ideas and future collaborations. We will finish the day with a relaxed wine reception.
It promises to be a fascinating, practical and thoroughly enjoyable day. I very much look forward to welcoming you to London in September.
Best regards,
Nicholas Gibbins
President British Laryngological Association
