SEP 9 - 11 2020
AGBT Precision Health Meeting
AGBT Precision Health is going virtual on September 10-11, 2020. The Precision Health meeting is free of charge to everyone who registers before July 30th. Following this date, registration is $250.
This is a special year for the Precision Health Meeting as we celebrate our 5th Anniversary and continue to focus on technologies, implementation, and major research breakthroughs.
Over the last several years, AGBT Precision Health has highlighted the most provocative discoveries and major initiatives in genomic medicine from leaders of national healthcare systems, genomics institutes, international biobank initiatives, transformative diagnostic approaches, and hospital-based implementation and reimbursement. Continuing the historical focus of AGBT on technologies and public-private partnerships, the Precision Health Meeting highlights innovative technologies and their impact in clinical diagnostics and therapeutic development, as well as the evolving view of genotype-phenotype interpretation from rare variants to polygenic risk scores.
This event is for leading genomic researchers, healthcare professionals, and healthcare industry stakeholders. We bring together practitioners and innovators at the interface of genomics, medicine, and health to usher in a new era of precision medicine. Our aim is to pass the torch from pioneering researchers and developers of genome technologies to first movers in healthcare who are establishing standards of care and cutting-edge applications for genome technology in everyday clinical practice.
