Update your knowledge in biomarkers clinical development in very
focused and specific areas of biomarkers, namely in genetic rare
diseases (neurologic and muscle diseases), in two highly frequent
multi-factorial genetic diseases (metabolism/diabetes and
rheumatology) and in highly frequent but neglected diseases
(malaria and tuberculosis) which occur mainly in the developing and
poor world. The latest development of new technical and
computational tools will be presented including the use or
embryonic stem cells for following up rare monogenic diseases. The
incidence of the development of biomarker use on health economy and
health policy will be addressed before closing this
conference.
Topics:
– Comprehensive coverage of biomarkers in :
Genetic rare diseases
Genetic polyfactorial diseases
Neglected diseases
– New technical and computational tools for biomarkers
analysis
– How health policy may change after biomarker analysis
implementation
