REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS

To register as press, journalists must provide official press credentials such as a business card, editorial roster or masthead, international press card, or letter of assignment. Journalists must also provide at least two links and/or PDFs of bylined coverage from a previous AACR meeting, or, for first time-attendees, two examples of recent bylined health/medical/science coverage published in news outlets that meet the AACR’s criteria. Freelance journalists who have a letter of assignment should upload a copy of the letter below. Members of the Association of Health Care Journalists (AHCJ) are permitted to register for complimentary access to AACR meetings regardless of assignment. AHCJ members can upload proof of membership below.
