Location of event

Personalised medicine, enabled by personalised ICT services, and providing genetic and genomic information of every

individual, is designed to give each patient an individual therapeutically active drug while minimising the adverse effects.

Personalised medicine will only be successful when accurate diagnostic tests identify the patients who can benefit from

targeted therapies and eventually reach the desired goal of prevention and prediction. The formidable challenges we are

faced with in reaching this goal are numerous.

The scope of this conference is to connect high-level scientists across scientific domains, to support capacity building and

increase the impact of personalised medicine research on regulatory bodies and decision-makers, as well as on the

private sector.
