    Hi All,

    One thing I've struggled with recently is what meeting best caters to disease state specialists, as many of the conferences I historically attended have become increasingly less relevant to my daily practice. I had the opportunity to attend TTLC (targeted therapies in lung cancer) meeting a few weeks ago, which is not a conference I had on my radar until one of my oncologists asked if I was going to go. I will say after attending that meeting - I found it to be tremendously informative for me at my current place in practice, and thought I would use this opportunity to share some other upcoming lung-cancer specific meetings in case others may be in a similar situation. 

    Most immediately Texas Lung Cancer Conference will be happening from 4/9 - 4/11 and is still open to registration for those interested: 2026 Texas Lung Cancer Conference | IASLC

    Additionally - there are other conferences put on by IASLC throughout the year which may be good to attend (e.g. North America Conference on Lung Cancer in December): Search Upcoming Conferences & Webinars | IASLC. Anyway - figured I would share these resources for anyone else who may find this helpful as this is an area where I'm learning more myself!
