Best of ASCO® International
The Best of ASCO® International delivers highlights from the ASCO Annual Meeting in local settings around the world. A panel of ASCO experts selects abstracts from the ASCO annual meeting to create the Best of ASCO®. ASCO licenses the program to oncology societies outside of the United States.
The Best of ASCO® enables local oncology professionals to access highlights presented at the Annual Meeting without the expense and time commitment of lengthy international travel. Furthermore, the format of the Best of ASCO® International meetings allows for local faculty to place the research and presentations into the context of the country or region.
