Highlights from the WCLC24 Day 3
The WCLC24 is taking place at the San Diego Convention Center from September 7 to 10, 2024.
The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) is a global, multidisciplinary organization committed to the eradication of all forms of lung cancer. The IASLC unites a diverse group of professionals – including medical, surgical, and radiation oncologists, as well as nurses, basic scientists, pathologists, radiologists, pulmonologists, statisticians, patient advocates, patients, and caregivers in– its mission to advance the science of lung cancer and enhance patient care.
Organized by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), this major conference is gathering leading experts, researchers, and oncologists to present and discuss the latest advancements in lung cancer research, treatment, and personalized therapies, fostering collaborative efforts towards overcoming the challenges of lung cancer.
Here are some Highlights from the WCLC24 Day 3:
