Overview

Welcome to the Cancer Proteomics track of the Systems Biology Europe conference and exhibition. This year's event will be held in Madrid, the capital and largest city of Spain.

The focus of this conference track will be on current advances in proteomic technologies applied to cancer research, both in diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic development. Presentations will cover the use of mass-spectrometry and array-based technologies for the discovery, identification and validation of biomarkers in a range of cancers.

Other conference tracks at this event include Informatics, Exosomes/Markers in Biological Fluids and Metabolic Profiling & Lipidomics. Registered delegates will have access to all four meetings ensuring a very cost-effective trip.

In addition the event will also host two cutting edge business courses which can be viewed here.
