Hereditary and Familial Cancer In The Personal Genomics Era

Hereditary and Familial Cancer In The Personal Genomics Era

Conference - Barcelona, Spain

The Institute of Predictive and Personalized Medicine of Cancer (IMPPC) and the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) are providing a forum for professionals working with hereditary and familial cancers. The program combines the fields of Genomics for Public Health and Management of Hereditary Cancer and contains topics ranging from basic research to clinical applications.

We believe that this meeting is of interest for two reasons; for the topics that will be covered and for the combination of the different fields of Genomics for Public Health and Management of Hereditary Cancer. Our proposed format, the prestige of the speakers in the fields of cancer and personalized medicine and the focus on aspects ranging from basic research to clinical applications makes this an attractive meeting of great scientific interest at the national and international level.

This conference will be of interest to clinical researchers, who understand the transformation medicine will undergo due to the knowledge of the genome and the new tools for studying and interpreting it. It will also attract basic researchers keen to understand the impact that personalized medicine applied to cancer will have on the practice of medicine. The ethical and legal implications of these changes are very important for both these groups of researchers. The meeting is already attracting international professionals, as well as to those working in Spain
