Patient Advocate Registration

Attend the Meeting as a Patient Advocate

Patient Advocates attending the 2010 ASCO Annual Meeting are offered a wide range of opportunities at this event, including:

• Pre-Meeting Teleconference on Research Highlights: join a May 20 teleconference for a preview of major research news, hearing directly from ASCO leaders. The teleconference will take place at the same time that the news embargo lifts (6:00PM EDT), so participants will receive timely information and access.
• Research Review Sessions: hear and discuss disease-specific topics and oncology-related subjects as presented at the meeting, with expert panelists onsite in Chicago.
• Patient Advocate Lounge: get access to this home base where advocates can gather in a relaxed environment to take a break, utilize computers, and network with others
• Patient Advocate Exhibit Booths: Visit with patient advocates exhibiting in the ASCO-Sponsored Patient Advocacy Booth (booth 5005) and with about 35 additional patient advocacy organizations situated near the front of the exhibit hall. To access the entire exhibitor directory on-line, visit www.asco.org/exhibitordirectory.
• Discounted registration rates, scholarship program, and much more!
