This Journal Club has been a unique opportunity for members of the PC assembles to communicate about intriguing and significant contemporary literature. We hope that the journal club will provide a venue to encourage scientific dialogue between ATS members and provide opportunities for intellectually stimulating interactions within the ATS community. This PC Journal Club will occur monthly and take on one of the two formats:
-
Text-based summary of high impact research articles, with expert commentary
- Online webinar with live presentations by international experts and interactive discussion from ATS members
