第1届
Genomic Screening and Diagnosis
生染色体组筛选和诊断学会
2月21日～23日
该学会聚焦于基因检验与应注意诊断的新世界，思考产前检查、新生儿检查、成人检查等现场进行的作业，并检讨查出罕见疾病和一般疾病相关的基因突变等各种技术。此外，亦介绍各国的生染色体组分析中心和研究机关、医院、集中检验中心等进行基因检验的成功例子。该学会的目的为概观生染色体组筛选领域，同时表明技术面、伦理面、法规面的问题等应尽速因应的主要课题，亦预定进行有关筛选手续的方针和引进的判断基准等讨论。
Who Should Attend: VPs, Directors, Managers, CEOs, CSOs, Professors and Scientists from Large Pharma, Biotechs and Academia working in fields such as Genomics, Healthcare, Pathology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Biotherapeutics, R&D, and Pharmacogenomics.
Topics will include, but are not limited to:
- Discovery of rare and common disease genes
- Preconception testing
- Diagnostic testing
- Which disorders should be included in a screening program?
- Reimbursement for screening – who pays and how?
- Who should be screened?
- What are the potential risks of screening?
- Compare use of
