The American Society of Retina Specialists (ASRS) is set to host its 2024 annual meeting in Stockholm, Sweden, from 16-20 July. This event brings together retina specialists from around the globe to discuss cutting-edge research, provide updates on clinical trials and network with one another.

The meeting also serves as a launchpad for industry news as companies relay results from ongoing studies. As the 2024 ASRS meeting draws nearer, companies in the retina space are beginning to highlight the presentations where they plan to showcase major news.

Throughout the weeks leading up to the conference, the Modern Retina team will highlight industry announcements and share that news with the rest of the Eye Care Network. First, two previews of upcoming data from 4D Molecular Therapeutics and Adverum Biotechnologies.
