This event is now apart of the Clinical Diagnostics & Research Virtual Event Series.
Our 3rd Annual Event in the Precision Medicine Virtual Event Series is now available On Demand!
Precision Medicine 2018 will continue the dialogue and provide updates on new efforts in drug discoveries, developments in FDA regulatory structures, and the integration of genetics on disease progression.
Precision Medicine is becoming an integral part of research in the science community. The discipline not only involves individual genetic information, but also environmental, behavioral, and clinical data. A combination of these factors allows researchers to put together a comprehensive view of each patient that aids in their search for precision approaches to health maintenance, disease prevention, and therapies.
Attendees of the on-demand 2018 virtual event will learn from industry experts on a range of topics, such as NGS applications and technology development, large-scale genomics data sets, large-scale sequencing efforts, pharmagenomics and drug development to name a few. Presentations on developments for diagnostic and treatment for diseases such as cancer and Crohn's will also be available.
Topic's for this years event included:
