Use your smartphone to begin planning your ATS 2012 International Conference schedule prior to the meeting. To download the free app, which will be available at the end of April, for your iPhone, iPad or Android, just search for “ATS 2012” in the iTunes store or in Google Play.

Plan your itinerary by searching sessions by keyword, author and title. In addition to the entire program of sessions and abstracts, the app features information about these offerings:

• ATS Center
• Center for Fellows and Junior Professionals
• Clinicians Center
• Diversity Forum
• Exhibit Hall
• Links to social networking (Facebook and Twitter)
• Hotel information
• San Francisco map
• Science and Innovation Center
• Women’s Forum

The ATS 2012 International Conference abstracts also will be available online at the ATS and American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine Web sites and onsite as a CD-ROM. Both versions enable search for abstracts by keyword, author and title.

In May, the Society will post the abstracts to the AJRCCM Web site hosted by Highwire Press, so that they remain citable and accessible for many years to come.

Attendees can pick up the ATS 2012 International Conference abstract CD-ROM onsite at the ATS Center (Booth 1331) in the Exhibit Hall. Copies will also be available beginning Wednesday, May 18, at the ATS Center Satellite Booth, which will be located in the South Lobby, street level, of the Moscone Center.
