Welcome to our ESMO Virtual Congress site where we showcase the very best from ESMO's flagship portfolio.

ESMO European Lung Cancer Congress 2025 opens in new tab/window

The European Lung Cancer Congress is a collaborative effort of the most important multidisciplinary societies representing thoracic oncology specialists, working together to advance science, disseminate education and improve the practice of lung cancer specialists worldwide.

Medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, thoracic surgeons, respiratory physicians / pneumologists, interventional radiologists and pathologists all benefit from its comprehensive and stimulating programme.

Below a collection of papers recently published in ESMO’s premier journals carefully selected to reflect the themes of the meeting.
