This four-day event will feature cutting-edge
lectures, workshops, and a keynote lecture presented by
Kay E. Davies, PhD, University of Oxford,
distinguished recipient of the 2009 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,
Real Time
Updates and New Clinical Applications in Molecular Pathology,
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.
New for 2009!
