The year 2006 was a good year for basic science publications in Respirology with a lot of the studies being relevant to clinical practice. In this respect many of the publications focused on biomarkers of disease and so much so that these have been discussed at the end of this review. The majority of manuscripts are related to airway diseases, respiratory infections, interstitial lung diseases and lung cancers, and are discussed under these headings.
