Member Testimonials

Lavinia Dobrea

The Center for Cancer Prevention and Treatment at St Joseph Hospital

RN, MS, OCN

[The IASLC] really knows how to tap into each specialist and draw out the best ideas. So, everybody has a voice. And nurses are - they're incorporated in so many of the talks that I've been to, and they want your opinions.

Narjust Duma

Mayo Clinic

Chief Hematology and Oncology Fellow

Being a member has helped me in many, many, many ways. First, coming to the [IASLC] World Conference of Lung Cancer. I was resident [and] presenting in front of 100 people [...] helped me secure my fellowship position. The IASLC also helped me with great networking opportunities to interact with many members of the lung cancer community.

Michael Boyer

Sydney Cancer Centre / Royal Prince Alfred Hospital

Medical Oncologist

One of the things that's very, very special about the IASLC is the way it mentors and really supports the young people within the organization. The primary way we do that is through fellowship programs. We have a range of fellowships that support people to travel, to get involved in research and again to meet people who can further their careers. This is so important.

Heather Wakelee

Stanford University Medical Center

Medical Oncologist and Thoracic Specialist

We're all having to know what's happening everywhere, and [the] IASLC gives [you] a really important opportunity to learn what's happening in the global community. To see how what you're doing connects with what we're doing to help fight cancer globally - and not just lung cancer but [also] other thoracic malignancies.
