NEW YORK, NY – May 13, 2026 – The American Thoracic Society is excited to introduce ATS NOW, an innovative on-demand video learning platform designed to bring International Conference highlights and ATS educational content directly to users—anytime, anywhere.

Available as part of a special new member benefit, ATS NOW will provide personalized content that’s ATS-vetted. Starting now through Dec. 31, 2026, ATS 2026 International Conference attendees will be able to access the most popular sessions from the International Conference, including Clinical-Year-in-Review, webinars and podcasts, all at no added cost.

“ATS NOW is like Netflix for pulmonologists, giving our members a truly personalized and flexible way to stay connected with high value educational content,” said Raed Dweik, MD, MBA, ATSF, ATS President.

ATS NOW brings together the Society’s most sought-after learning assets—including annual meeting highlights, expert-led presentations, and topic-focused educational materials—assembled and recommended through AI-powered personalization tools. As ATS continues its mission to advance respiratory health, ATS NOW marks an important step toward meeting the evolving educational needs of clinicians, researchers, and trainees across the global pulmonary, critical care, and sleep communities.
