Leadership

CHEST members are empowered to make themselves heard and make a difference in pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine. Our committees, Networks, Board of Regents, and Presidents work diligently to ensure that CHEST addresses the key issues that affect our members, patients, and communities.

Because of our volunteer leaders, we are able to provide the most relevant and impactful content and educational offerings for the entire chest medicine community.
