Lecture and poster programme

The Functional Genomics and Proteomics seminar will highlight new applications and advances in molecular diagnostics. A special focus of the conference will be on personalized medicine.

Technology transfer session

Take advantage of this new session to assess the scientific and industrial landscape of technologies and functional genomics and to promote your collaboration and technology transfer offers.

This session is a unique opportunity for scientists to present their research findings to potential partners from industry in a 10 min talk. Find the right partner to translate your research into products!

Panel Discussion: Personalized Medicine - Pros and Cons?

The objective of personalized medicine is to make the treatment as individualized as the disease, to analyze a person's susceptibility of developing a certain disease and its response to a certain treatment. First drugs are on the market and the expectations are high. However, the costs of such individualized treatments also present a challenge for the public health sector.

The Pros and Cons will be discussed by an expert panel:

Theo Dingermann, Frankfurt University
Rudi Balling, Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine/L
Thomas Gress, Marburg University Hospital
Martin Hrabĕ de Angelis, German Research Center for Environmental Health, Munich &
TU München
Bruce Quinn, Foley Hoag LLP, Boston, MA/USA
