We welcome media to attend the IASLC 2021 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC 2021). Further information and details about media policies and embargoes can be found below.

Registration and Media Requirements

Press & Media Registration Now Open

Register Now

Eligibility

  • Companies or organizations producing publications, videos and other products intended for marketing, advertising, financial analysis or public relations purposes may not register to attend the meeting as media. This includes any organization that intends to sell or distribute video recorded at the WCLC for monetary gain. Any organization filming video is required to use either the official conference backdrop or a co-branded backdrop (include the IASLC logo). Any organization that misrepresents itself in regard to this manner will face sanctions and possible other actions, including confiscation of media credentials and dismissal from the meeting.
  • Financial analysts; sales, advertising or marketing representatives; book publishers and book authors may not register as media, but are welcome to register as regular attendees.
  • Public relations personnel and individuals from communications, print and online promotion services should register as a regular attendee (not as media).
  • Media are welcome to attend all general admission Scientific and Educational Sessions. These sessions may NOT be filmed on video. Ticketed sessions, such as "Interactive Breakfast Sessions”, are not open to media.

All media representatives are required to pre-register for the meeting and must be credentialed by the IASLC before being officially registered.

Journalists, including photographers, must work exclusively for the outlet for which they are credentialed (exceptions for freelance journalists are detailed below). Journalists who use their media privileges to work for non-credentialed organizations will have their privileges revoked. Journalists are required to complete the media online pre-registration form and submit the following:

  • A letter of assignment on the letterhead of the news organization being represented.
  • A photocopy of official press credentials, such a press card issued by a recognized journalists’ association or a government-sanctioned press organization (IASLC does not recognize press cards issued by web-based organizations such as IFNM) and/or a business card issued by a recognized news organization.

Freelance journalists including photographers may work for multiple publications, as long as they confirm in advance that those publications are eligible for media registration. Freelance journalists must submit the following:

  • A letter of assignment on the letterhead of the news organization being represented.
  • A recent copy of the publication (a mailed copy, link to the publication’s website or a photocopy of a cover/issue published within the past 6 months).
