The Project decomposes the guidelines covered in the latest GOLD Report (2020 Edition) and converts them into scene-based, live interactive programs/courses. These programs/courses are available in diverse forms, including articles, case studies, video demos, interactive graphics, prescription simulations, expert interviews and academic salons, and offer a convenient and effective way for medical workers to better apply the latest GOLD guidelines to their clinical practices.
