ABSTRACT VOLUME
All abstracts accepted for presentation at the ASGT 8 th
Annual Meeting have been published in the May
supplement of Molecular Therapy. Each attendee will
receive one copy of the supplement along with other
registration materials.
ADMISSION TO SESSIONS
Official name badges will be required for admission to all
ASGT sessions. All Annual Meeting attendees receive a
name badge with their registration bag. Name badges
should be worn at all times inside the convention center,
as badges will be used to control access to sessions and
activities. Attendees are cautioned against wearing their
name badges while away from the convention center as
badges may draw unwanted attention to your status as
visitors to St. Louis.
ADMISSION BY TICKET ONLY
The Meet-the-Investigator sessions require tickets for
admission. Tickets for these sessions are not included in
the meeting’s regular registration fees. Tickets will be
collected at the door by ushers. There are still a limited
number of tickets available which may be obtained at the
Registration Desk. Tickets are $20 and include a box
