The ATS 2026 Call for Scientific Abstracts and Case Reports is now open. The deadline for submissions is Nov. 5.

The next VIPPN (Virtual International Pediatric Pulmonary Network) clinical case series will be presented by Diana Gil, MD, from Clínica Unión Médica, Santiago and discussed by Ada De los Santos, MD, from Clínica Unión Médica, Santiago and Juana Mercado, MD, from Hospital Infantil Dr. Arturo Grullon, Santiago y Clínica Corinas. República Dominicana. The session will be chaired by Ada De los Santos, MD, from Clínica Unión Médica, Santiago, República Dominicana.

This webinar will bring together thought leaders from the Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) and the American Thoracic Society (ATS) to discuss advances in multi-omics approaches and their applications in respiratory research. Featuring presentations from Dr. Bowler (ATS G&G, Cleveland Clinic) and Dr. Edahiro (JRS, Osaka University).

This Critical Care Assembly Early Career Professionals Working Group Virtual Grand Rounds will feature two 20-minute presentations, “Disparities in Pulmonary Embolism” and “Patient, Provider, and Policy: Dynamic Determinants of Tracheostomy Incidence and Outcomes,” followed by Q&A.

New data on pediatric lung transplant in the age of CF-modulatory therapy will be briefly presented and then an expert panel will discuss some of the current changes in patient type / practices that have been occurring in the field.

Single-cell genomics and spatial transcriptomics are becoming cornerstone technologies in modern lung disease studies. With dozens to hundreds of datasets produced each year, we require standardized platforms to access, analyze and synthesize new insights with minimal obstacles. Here we will overview the wealth of resources and tools provided by the NHLBI LungMAP Research Consortia. LungMAP hosts thousands of high quality, annotated histology images, dozens of disease genomic datasets and facile tools to support user-guided analyses. Finally, we will introduce LungChat - a new adaptive AI platform to compare disease and developmental conditions across human lung cell biology, generate new insights, develop new hypotheses and produce reliable publication quality figures.

Presenters will present their scientific abstract (that were submitted and presented at ATS 2025), which will be followed by question and answer and discussion with the audience and the expert panelists.

This webinar will feature Maria Brancato from the American Lung Association and Dr. Amali Samarasinghe from the University of Wisconsin, who will share insights on preparing strong applications for ALA research grants.

In this joint webinar, we will discuss scientific evidence supporting oxygen therapy for chronic respiratory diseases, contemporary oxygen delivery devices and practical aspects of home oxygen therapy prescription, led by a panel of expert speakers: Susan S. Jacobs, MS, RN, FAAN, Stanford University; Michael W. Hess, MPH, RRT, RPFT, COPD Foundation; and Dona Upson, MD, MA, ATSF, University of New Mexico.

We have planned a retreat. Our speakers are, Puroshothama Rao Tata, MSc, PhD, Duke University Lung Regeneration: Cells, models, and mechanisms Jane Deng, MS, MD, University of Michigan Immunescence, microbiome, and lung infections
