The Business of Personalized Medicine Summit 2020

How are businesses across the health care and life sciences spectrum collaborating to capitalize on the commercial promise of personalized medicine? Join us at the Business of Personalized Medicine Summit at Oyster Point on Thursday, February 27, 2020, to find out!

Since the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003, the genomic revolution has spurred immeasurable excitement and support surrounding the promise of personalized medicine, setting high expectations for a new era of health care and rapidly transforming the field into a multi-billion dollar industry.

While realizing the medical and commercial potential of personalized medicine has turned out to be neither quick nor easy, we could finally be on the cusp of widespread clinical adoption and improved patient outcomes thanks to recent scientific and technological advances, including with CRISPR gene editing and targeted therapies. In fact, in its latest report, Cancer Statistics, 2020, the American Cancer Society cites a 2.2% drop in the U.S. cancer death rate from 2016 to 2017 — the largest single-year drop ever recorded — and attributes it largely to the development of targeted therapies and other personalized medicines for the treatment of lung and skin cancers.

With this welcome news underscoring the real medical contributions of personalized medicine, this year’s Summit aims to explore whether the business community might also be on the verge of capitalizing on the field’s commercial promise and, if so, what that could mean for innovation, investment, profitability, and growth in the space moving forward. You won’t want to miss these one-of-a-kind discussions with key industry executives in the birthplace of biotechnology — RSVP to attend today.

Registration is complimentary for life sciences and health care executives, entrepreneurs, investors, and academics. For more information, visit www.personalizedmedicinesummit.com or contact Allison Jones at [email protected].
