Press at GSA 2024

Are you a member of the media and interested in covering the GSA 2024 Annual Scientific Meeting?


Media Registration

GSA extends complimentary registration to all working members of the media. This includes reporters, editors, publishers, electronic media producers, columnists, bloggers, and other editorial communicators who reach general or specialized audiences on a regular basis with news reports or fact-based analysis.

Applicants for media registration must provide:

  • An editorial title that is verifiable or proof of an editorial assignment to cover the conference.
  • A hard copy or link to a recent bylined article or audio/video story credited to you.

Freelancers are asked to:

  • Provide a letter or e-mail from a publisher, editor, or executive-level producer indicating that you are covering the GSA Annual Scientific Meeting.
  • For those without advance assignments, provide evidence of journalistic work previously produced or published in a subject area related to concerns in aging; or provide proof of membership in the Association for Health Care Journalists.

Online media must meet the following criteria:

  • Online content must be produced for an established news entity, rather than for a personal website or social media account.
  • Website or e-news content must extend beyond links, forums, personal diaries, opinion, personal analysis, or information about the publishing organization’s activities and programs.
  • A blog must reflect current aging-related news that is posted on a consistent daily or weekly basis.
