Society of Thoracic Surgeons 58th Annual Meeting
Virtual Event
Out of concern for the health and safety of our community during the surging pandemic, STS will convert its 58th Annual Meeting from an in-person event in Miami to a virtual event. In taking this difficult but necessary step, we thoughtfully considered input, data, and guidance from a variety of sources, as well as reports from members on the front line. Although disappointing that, once again, we will not be together in person, this is the most prudent decision given the information we have today.
The good news is that STS 2022 will go on as a live, 2-day, virtual meeting to be held January 29-30. The program will be shorter, but retain key elements, including the latest ground-breaking research, thought-provoking plenaries, and valuable industry symposia. We are confident in our ability to deliver high-quality, engaging content for all participants. The revised program is in development and will be shared shortly.
We understand that there will be many questions from registered attendees, faculty, staff, and industry partners. We will provide more information over the coming days. Ongoing meeting updates will be shared via email, sts.org, social media, and one-on-one conversations, as necessary.
We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work through the planning and logistics of the virtual meeting. Thank you for your ongoing support of STS and our specialty, and your commitment to the success of STS 2022.
