The Patient Advocates Committee ensures that the IASLC addresses the informational needs of the public, advocates and patients living with lung and thoracic cancers. This committee also comprehensively addresses the educational and related needs of the public as an important constituency in the work of the association.
Overview
The IASLC, and this committee especially, works to ensure that the patient's voice and needs are not overshadowed by the science behind daily patient care. By ensuring that all of the society materials include information vital to patients, in terms that resonate with the physicians, hopefully daily care is high quality and sensitive.
