About the Conference

One of the longest running conferences in the personalized/precision medicine space, Arrowhead's 9th Annual Personalized & Precision Medicine Conference is coming to Orlando, Florida on October 16th-17th as an official Satellite Event to the American Society of Human Genetics Annual Meeting. 
Nine years ago Arrowhead’s Personalized & Precision Medicine Conference focused almost exclusively on the one-on-one relationship between the pharmaceutical and diagnostic industries. Since then the field has evolved to include not just these bilateral relationships, but multi-stakeholder relationships that are now integral to the future of the field. The conference will present the latest research and trends propelling Precision Medicine into the future with a focus on innovations in R & D, technological developments, Precision Medicine advances in infectious disease, CNS and cardiovascular disease, patient/citizen involvement (the ‘quantified self’) and its impact advancing Precision Medicine, health and social well being.

Key Themes at This Year's Conference

R & D: Trends & Challenges in Diagnostics and Therapeutics
Rapidly advancing scientific, technological and societal developments enable us to now combine the best science with applications in real time, including data collection. The ability to quantify physiologies and genetic make-ups as well as patients using omics based and imaging technologies is increasing. Speakers and panelists will discuss how these disruptions are improving R&D.

Technologies Revolutionizing Precision Medicine
Technological innovations including but not limited to new computational platforms and methods, machine learning, digital imaging, medical decision support tools and their impact on improving our understanding of disease processes, detection, treatment and prevention will be discussed by experts and innovators.

Beyond Oncology: Infectious Disease, CNS Disorders and Cardiovascular Disease
Genomics and the related -omics are improving our understanding of the biological complexities and physiological processes involved in infectious, CNS and cardiovascular disease and therefore the ability of Precision Medicine to impact detection, treatment, prevention, and chronic care. Presenters will discuss key advances in these respective fields, and the success and challenges in implementing precision into clinical management.

Harnessing Big Data For Research & Clinical Application
Large-scale data analysis is transforming the way we diagnose, treat and prevent disease. This section addresses a range of challenges in improving the access, portability, sharing and storage of personal genomic data. Accessing ‘locked’ databases whose data is available only for a cost versus publically available data, is but one such challenge.

Patient Engagement, Empowerment & Ethical Issues
Speakers will discuss the powerful impact of patient engagement and the various ethical issues in ensuring that patients have access to their data, if they so choose, as well as to the diagnostics, treatments and management strategies they have helped to develop by sharing their personal data.

From Research to Clinical Adoption: Drivers, Barriers, and Designing Success Strategies
Implementing innovation in clinical medicine increasingly requires adoption by health care institutions. The adoption process has always been, and remains, a formidable challenge due to various factors including; institutional barriers, cost, lack of knowledge, skill or motivation. Speakers will discuss a range of drivers, barriers and possible solution strategies to expedite efficient and effective implementation of evidence based solutions.

Networking Opportunities

 
You will have multiple chances to network and meet with others in the field of personalized medicine during the conference. There will be an online networking tool available before the conference even begins!
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet other attendees through the following networking services:
► Our CONFERENCE NETWORKING SITE is online weeks prior to the event. Attendees can schedule one-on-one meetings prior to the conference and print out a schedule of meeting times during the conference.
► EXTENDED NETWORKING BREAKS. These will give attendees the chance to meet those with whom they many not have set up meetings.
► EVENING RECEPTION. This will give attendees the chance to mingle with other professionals after a day full of speakers, meetings, and thought-provoking topics.
► SPEAKER Q&A SESSIONS. This will afford attendees the opportunity to ask additional questions of our speakers.
