ASCO is now accepting abstracts to be considered for presentation or publication at the 2011 Annual Meeting in Chicago. The submission deadline is 11:59 PM on February 2, 2011.

ASCO encourages abstracts of studies on all types of cancer as well as investigations focusing on the following areas:

Patients: addressing the care delivered to patients with cancer, how more patients are becoming cancer survivors, and the resultant survivorship and quality-of-life concerns

Pathways: highlighting the biologic pathways that help drive disease, as well as the understanding of these pathways that is defining new clinical treatments and leading to improved patient care

Progress: discussing how discoveries made at the lab bench are translated into ongoing progress against cancer, lower cancer mortality, and the partnering of the right treatments with the right patients

All abstracts must be sponsored by an ASCO member. The privilege of submitting an abstract is only one of many exclusive ASCO membership benefits, including an average savings of 50% off the Annual Meeting nonmember registration rates. To join ASCO, visit benefits.asco.org. ■
