University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine |
The 2009 Conference will focus on targeted clinical trials. The Conference will bring together leading scientists who will make presentations and lead open discussions on state-of-the-art and developing methods. A range of topics linked closely to translational medicine will be examined. The Conference will conclude with a panel discussion to synthesize and challenge earlier presentations, as well as to propose future directions. Scholarly exchange of ideas and lively discussions are expected. Participants from academic institutions, industry and governmental agencies with interest in contributing to these discussions are encouraged to register.
