BIOPRO Baden-Württemberg GmbH and their French network partner BioValley France organise their 16th joint «Meet & Match» event. Focussing on «Precision Medicine – Research, Diagnostics & Therapy», the event takes place on Tuesday, July 2, 2019, in Stuttgart.
Thematically, the focus of this networking event is on present and future trends in the field of Precision Medicine such as biomarker/target identification, big data, single cell analysis as well as novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, e.g. in the area of individualised cancer treatment or cell therapies.
Prof. Dr. Nisar Malek, speaker of the Centre for Personalised Medicine (ZPM) in Tübingen, will open the event with a keynote on current advances in the field. In addition, 10 presentations from researchers and industry will provide insights into ongoing projects and trends related to Precision Medicine.
The Meet & Match addresses research institutions and companies – from Baden-Württemberg and the French region Grand Est – with an interest in Precision Medicine, biotechnology, diagnostics and drug development. The objective is to establish new contacts, encourage participants to initiate cooperations or joint developments as well as to gain a better understanding of Precision Medicine and its possible applications. The lunch and coffee breaks offer extensive networking opportunities.
During the «Short presentation session» participants may introduce their company or research group to enable intense networking opportunities. You can apply for a two-minute short presentation upon registration until Friday, June 7, 2019. Please note that the number of short presentations is limited and that the session is arranged for research institutions or companies being active in R&D or production. Selection is made by the organisers.
The participation is free of charge. Prior registration is requested. The event will be held in English.
We look forward to seeing you in Stuttgart!
