Precision Medicine Oncology Symposium: From the Basics to Current Clinical Applications
Part 1
A Virtual Event
Precision medicine encompasses all approaches that use patient- and disease-specific information to prevent, diagnose, and treat a disease. The increasingly widespread use of genome sequencing and genomic profiling has significantly improved the diagnoses and treatment of oncologic diseases by identifying unique variants that can be targeted with gene-based targeted therapeutic approaches, including immunotherapies.
The series is designed to provide oncology clinicians and researchers foundational information on the latest technologies available for data acquisition, diagnosis, and decision-making for oncologic diseases.
