The American Thoracic Society (ATS) has launched ATS Now, an on-demand video learning platform designed to provide respiratory healthcare professionals with access to international conference highlights and educational content.
The platform serves as a digital repository for the society’s most requested learning assets, including annual meeting highlights, expert-led presentations, and topic-focused materials. It utilizes artificial intelligence-powered personalization tools to recommend content to users based on their professional needs.
“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.
Through Dec 31, 2026, attendees of the ATS 2026 International Conference can access popular sessions, such as the Clinical-Year-in-Review, at no additional cost. For those not attending the conference, the benefit is available to ATS members for $50 USD. Non-member trainees will be charged $200 USD, while non-trainees can access the platform for $300 USD.
The initiative is intended to support the evolving educational requirements of clinicians and researchers within the global pulmonary, critical care, and sleep communities. As the society continues its mission to advance respiratory healthcare, the platform represents a step toward meeting the needs of trainees and practitioners.
