#ASCO20

The Annual Meeting serves many goals in support of ASCO’s

mission, none more critical than delivering the most up-to-
date research and education. Knowing that the discoveries
presented at ASCO inform both immediate clinical practice
and future research directions, we intend to deliver the latest
cancer science to the global community during the Annual
Meeting timeframe using a virtual format that respects the
contributions of the authors and the work of the Scientific
Program Committee.

Join us May 29-31 as we convene under a new virtual format.

ASCO20 Virtual Scientific Program will deliver the planned
scientific content in a virtual format, enabling clinicians to
understand how and when to integrate novel research into
patient care. Although we are unable to unite in Chicago as we
had hoped, we will unite as a global community to meet these
challenges and address the acute clinical care issues ahead.
