This four-day event will feature cutting-edge lectures, workshops, and a keynote lecture presented by Janet D. Rowley, MD, University of Chicago School of Medicine, distinguished recipient of the 2007 AMP Award for Excellence in Molecular Diagnostics. 

Programming includes poster sessions and invited speakers for workshop and plenary sessions in the major areas of clinical molecular diagnostics: hematopathology, infectious diseases, inherited genetic diseases, solid tumors, and technical topics.

The meeting is preceded by one day of Corporate-Sponsored Workshops featuring the latest scientific advances and equipment. Corporate exhibits, working lunch meetings, and casual social gatherings offer opportunities for networking and further exchange with molecular laboratory professionals.  

A special feature of the meeting is the Outreach Program, Molecular Diagnostic Applications in Pathology: A Case-Oriented Approach, a one-day course for pathologists, laboratory directors and technologists who have little experience with molecular diagnostic testing.  Registration for this Community Pathology Outreach Program is separate from registration for the scientific sessions.
