The AACR welcomes press coverage of its major meetings with comprehensive press programs. These meetings are as follows:

Representatives from recognized news organizations or publications are cordially invited to attend press briefings and scientific sessions at these meetings. Read our press policies for more information. Journalists interested in attending AACR meetings without press programs, please contact the AACR Assistant Director of Science Communications Jeremy Moore at jeremy.moore@aacr.org or (215) 446-7109.

Reporters are encouraged to develop stories based on scientific papers published in the AACR’s seven peer-reviewed journals. The AACR Communications Department routinely distributes press releases about particularly newsworthy journal articles. However, reporters may also write about other research published in the journals, so long as listed embargoes are followed.
