Invitation

Dear Distinguished Participants,

On behalf of the Korean Association for Lung Cancer (KALC), it is our great honor and pleasure to welcome you to the KALC International Conference 2026, which will be held at the Lotte Hotel World in Seoul, Korea on September 10th and 11th, 2026.

Under the theme, “Leading the Future, Connecting the World for Lung Cancer Cure,” KALC 2026 will bring together leading experts, researchers, and healthcare professionals from around the world to share the latest advances in lung cancer research and treatment. Reflecting our commitment to realizing cure — the ultimate goal of lung cancer treatment — KALC continues to promote scientific exchange, global collaboration, and innovation through cutting-edge technologies and an international network connecting experts worldwide.

In particular, 2026 will be an especially meaningful year, as the conference will be held immediately prior to the World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in Seoul. In conjunction with this important global event, KALC 2026 will welcome an even greater number of internationally renowned experts and pioneers in lung cancer research than in previous years, further strengthening its role as a globally recognized academic platform for scientific exchange and collaboration.

We also welcome abstracts that have been accepted to or submitted for WCLC 2026, and sincerely encourage the interest and active participation of researchers worldwide.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all speakers, researchers, sponsors, organizers, and participants for your dedication and support. Your passion and commitment continue to drive our shared mission toward conquering lung cancer.

We sincerely look forward to welcoming you to Seoul for KALC International Conference 2026 and sharing this inspiring journey together.

With warm regards,
