Do I have to register for the ATS 2017 International Conference? Yes, fellows accepted into the FTS need to register. Attendance at the international conference is mandatory and a fellow's inability to stay for the duration of the entire conference will jeopardize his/her receiving the award. Note: This symposium is only opened to fellows who applied and were accepted. Elizabeth Guzman (lguzman@thoracic.org) When/Where do I check in for the 2017 FTS ?
