Meeting Coverage

Hear from the seven early career clinicians who were named CHEST Network Rising Stars, honoring their growth within CHEST as well as contributions in clinical care, education, research, or other scholarly activity.

CHEST will recognize members who are making an impact in education, research, clinical practice, and CHEST as an organization during the Opening Session on Sunday, October 18.

Ahead of the 25th annual CHEST Challenge Championship in Phoenix, finalists from different eras share their memories from participating and the lasting impact it had on their careers.

Thousands of oral, rapid-fire, and poster presentations will reveal novel findings, showcase fresh perspectives, spark exciting collaborations, and potentially even shape the future of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine.

Attending the CHEST Annual Meeting as a group allows coworkers to learn together, support each other, and grow closer as a team, said Sarah Tomashefski, MSN, AGNP-C, FCCP.

CHEST Networks and Interest Groups will help attendees find their home within a vibrant community, contribute to impactful initiatives, and form bonds that outlast the meeting itself.

CHEST 2026 is poised to help clinicians navigate a rapidly evolving technological and therapeutic landscape and understand what’s around the bend in pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine.
