Rami Manochakian’s key highlights from WCLC24
WCLC is a major international event focused on the latest advancements in lung cancer research, treatment, and patient care. Organized by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), this conference brings together researchers, clinicians, and healthcare professionals to share knowledge, discuss innovations, and collaborate on strategies to improve outcomes for lung cancer patients.
This year, WCLC24 is being held in San Diego, from September 7th to 10th. In connection to that, Rami Manochakian shared several posts on his X account:
