Biomarker and Companion Diagnostics Conference (London, United Kingdom - October 3-4, 2019) - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--()--The "Biomarker and Companion Diagnostics Conference" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Biomarker is constantly evolving as the latent for the development of innovative drugs and diagnostic assays for early detection of disease. The major developments are witnessed in immune therapies where breakthroughs will be appearing soon. The conference will address the gaps between early-stage biomarker development and the commercialization stage of biomarkers.

Regarding commercialization of biomarkers, leading industry and academic experts would share their case studies focusing on advancements in the companion diagnostics area. The keynote presentations would also help the attendees understand the issues related to the clinical translation of biomarkers.

20+ experts from academia and industry will be presenting their current work in Biomarkers, Latest updates on regulatory guidelines and approvals, Cancer biomarker validation for clinical application, Challenges in NGS based CDx and the Importance of imaging biomarkers for precision medicine.

Opportunity to develop long-lasting business relationships and networking opportunities with senior peers. Get the opportunity to get your queries handled by Biomarker experts in one on one session.

Facilitated networking sessions to ensure quality interactions along with Case studies from experts who have successfully created and developed a biomarker.
