Select Biosciences Fourth Annual Liquid Biopsies and Minimally-Invasive Diagnostics 2017 Conference
brings together academic researchers, industry researchers, as well as
biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to explore the expanding and
evolving field whereby Circulating Biomarkers of various classes are
being evaluated for their potential to be developed into diagnostics for
cancer as well as other disease classes.
This Liquid Biopsies Conference focuses primarily on
biofluid-based molecular biomarkers, such as circulating tumor DNA
(ctDNA) as well as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), and protein-based
circulating biomarkers. There is much interest in the potential of
ctDNA for developing biological fluid-based biopsies (such as using
plasma, urine, or other biofluids) and the presenters in this track
bring together the most up-to-date information and current
state-of-the-field.
The conference further explores the potential of various minimally-invasive circulating
biomarker classes, such as circulating-free DNA (cfDNA), CTCs, and
Extracellular Vesicles (EVs), for development of novel diagnostics for
patient monitoring.
This conference is held concurrently with the
NGS, RNA-Seq, Single Cell Analysis & Single Molecule Analysis: Research to Diagnostics 2017 Conference enabling delegates full access to the presentations, co-located exhibit hall and extensive networking opportunities.
