Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) Human Genome Meeting (HGM) 2010 is slated to be held on 18 - 21 May 2010 in the beautiful city Montpellier in south of France. Our focus this year is “Next Generation Genomics and Medicine”. We are expecting a stellar panel of international chairs and speakers. (http://www.hgm2010.org/speakers.php)

Next generation sequencing and genotyping coupled with computational advances have allowed the comprehensive and precise investigation of complex biological systems. Such advances have provided new insights in biology and new understandings of human disease. The complex and massive datasets require new systems approaches to data analysis and open up the possibility of synthetic reconstructions of biological systems.

The HGM 2010 will explore the interface between these next generation technologies and human biology and pathophysiology. The focus will be on the integration of biology, computational sciences, and genomic technologies towards resolving complex biological and medical questions. We will discuss the necessary processes such as biobanking that will enable this integration. The impact of this science on ethics and society, and on the aspirations of emerging countries will also be explored.

An essential addition from discovery to approval in clinical development

23rd - 24th March 2010, BSG Conference Centre, London, UK

Pharmaceutical and biotech companies are looking for new ways to increase the efficiency of drug discovery process while minimising costs and time for approvals. Biomarkers are fast becoming an essential part of clinical development from discovery to approval. According to industry research, the global biomarker market is estimated to be $20.5 billion by 2014, growing at a CAGR of 19.7 %.

Additionally, the use of proteomics in biomarker testing and identification has boosted the services for biomarkers. A large number of companies now have commercialised biomarker tests employing a variety of technologies. However, there are several barriers and challenges that must be overcome behind these technologies.

Visiongain is proud to present its 3rd Annual Biomarker Conference, which will be held in London UK on 23-24 March 2010.This conference will enable you to identify and overcome challenges on how to incorporate biomarkers into your discovery programs as well as highlighting new technologies and strategies to improved prevention and care approaches.
