Chronic diseases in developing and newly industrialized countries: A new challenge for global health

Basel, 10 November 2009

Chronic diseases can no longer be regarded as a problem that is exclusive to the developed world.

The eighth Swiss Health Cooperation Symposium to be organized by Medicus Mundi Switzerland will take place within the established framework.
