8:30 am - 6:00 pm | 8:30-18:00 CEST
Auditorium 1, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark
Due to tremendous progress in genome sequencing and engineering, and data sciences there is now an unprecedented opportunity for using genomic information in healthcare for patients. This symposium aims to showcase the future of implemented genomic medicine and to highlight the unique ability of the Danish healthcare system to enable clinical action based on genetic information. We will focus on new technologies in genome sequencing and engineering, the newest developments in population and clinical genetics, the unique opportunities of the Danish healthcare system, and the future of where we believe the field is heading and how Denmark can become a leader in this area.
Hosted by: Maria Rossing and Kasper Lage
