ATS International Conference 2027

Planned research activities

MedResearch Ninja invites medical students, physicians, residents, and research enthusiasts to join a mentored research initiative for the ATS International Conference 2027. We plan to develop and submit approximately 7–10 scientific abstracts and case reports across pulmonary medicine, critical care, and sleep medicine. The final number of submissions depends on participant enrollment, project feasibility, scientific quality, and readiness before the ATS submission deadline. Each enrolled participant is assigned to lead one capstone research project, is eligible for first authorship on that project upon fulfilling applicable ICMJE authorship criteria and substantive academic responsibilities, and may contribute as a co-author on additional submissions based on genuine scholarly contributions. First authorship, additional co-authorship, abstract acceptance, and presentation are not guaranteed, and authorship is never awarded solely through enrollment or payment.

Mentorship and coordination

Structured project timelines and milestones; research topic development and feasibility assessment; standardized research and writing templates; guidance on research methodology and data analysis; scientific writing and abstract preparation; internal peer review and quality assurance; submission coordination and deadline tracking; mentorship throughout the research process.

Included abstract submission fee

One $100 abstract submission fee for the assigned capstone project is included.

Presentation obligations

Participants are not required to attend the conference to contribute to the research team. Accepted submissions, however, must have an eligible designated presenter who registers for the conference and fulfils applicable ATS presentation requirements. Presenter allocation depends on author availability, eligibility, and conference guidelines.

Additional or excluded costs

Not included: ATS conference registration, travel, accommodation, and personal expenses.
