Note Regarding Fraudulent Registration Websites
The AACR is aware that one or more unauthorized companies are using deceptive advertising methods to direct users to fraudulent websites that purport to offer housing and registration for the AACR Annual Meeting 2024. Please note that users can only register to attend the AACR Annual Meeting and confirm a hotel room through this website. Convention Management Resources (CMR) is the official hotel management company and CompuSystems is the official registration provider for the AACR Annual Meeting 2024. Our vendors will not contact you directly. If you receive a call or e-mail from any vendor claiming to be an Annual Meeting housing or registration provider, do not respond or provide them with any personal information. The AACR cannot guarantee your registration or housing reservation if you purchase them using an illegitimate website.

Eligibility for Registration at AACR Member Rates
Nonmember individuals interested in registering at the early registration member rate must submit membership applications no later than December 8, 2023. Individuals who are interested in joining the AACR and registering at the advance registration member rate must submit membership applications no later than February 9, 2024. Only individuals who are listed on the membership rolls as of April 1, 2024, will be accorded the privilege of registering for the AACR Annual Meeting 2024 at the member rates noted on the registration form. In order to receive the AACR member rate, individuals must be current in their dues at the time of registration. If upon review of membership application, a candidate is deemed ineligible for the membership category to which they have applied, then the candidate will need to register in advance at the nonmember rate.
Registration Changes / Meeting Cancellation Policies
Registered participants may change their registration selection from the in-person to the virtual meeting at any time without penalties or change fees. All modifications to registration should be completed by Friday, April 5, 2024.
Participants may cancel their registration and receive a refund—less a $125 cancellation fee—as long as the cancellation request is received in writing on or before Friday, March 1, 2024. No refunds will be granted after this date.
