Log In    All Events SUMMIT NEWS | BREAKTHROUGH EAST Not your typical industry event — join us in NYC We're less than two weeks away from our most important NYC event of the year: STAT Breakthrough Summit East.   If you haven't been to a STAT summit before, expect something different from the typical industry conference. We keep the room intentionally intimate — bringing together a few hundred attendees, not thousands — with a deep focus on audience quality. STAT's editorial team also hand-selects hundreds of VIP guests each year, including leading scientists, academics, advocates, policymakers, and business executives. The conversations off stage are just as important as the ones on stage. And every interview is moderated by STAT's award-winning reporters. In New York, that includes Matthew Herper, Damian Garde, Sarah Todd, Jason Mast, Lizzy Lawrence, and Mario Aguilar. In-person seats are still available — join us live in NYC! Explore the full agenda and see why this is a room you'll want to be in.  LAST CALL Secure your Breakthrough East pass today Join us live in New York City or online on March 19, 2026!
