2017 Precision Medicine World Conference
The Precision Medicine World Conference (PMWC) formerly known as the Personalized Medicine World Conference is the only fully integrated conference to examine the advances and challenges of Personalized Medicine through a practical lens. PMWC brings together the thought-leaders of business, government, healthcare-delivery, research and technology into one information-rich, three-day conference.
Co-hosts: Stanford Health Care, UCSF, Intermountain Health, Duke University and Duke Health.
The conference format consists of two main tracks (1 and 2) and two parallel tracks (3 and 4). Tracks 1 and 2 include sessions by leaders in the commercial, pharmaceutical, academic, government, regulatory, venture capital, and non-profit arenas that deliver a broad and up-to-date array of content across the various facets of precision medicine. Session discussions focus on time-relevant aspects with a selected set of key stakeholders, while commercial sessions cover the latest developments in technologies that are instrumental for the success of further adoption of precision medicine.
In parallel Tracks 3 and 4, the “Most Promising Company Competition” segment identifies “rising stars” startup companies in the area of diagnostics, therapeutics, and health tech via a platform that includes leading investors. Additionally, companies and research institutions can promote their platforms, launch products, and share research developments to a targeted audience.
