MAP 2016 – Molecular Analysis for Personalised Therapy

Start date: 23 Sep 2016
End date: 24 Sep 2016
Location: London, United Kingdom

The advent of genome sequencing is bringing about a quiet revolution in healthcare. Yet while the thirst for advanced genomic knowledge may seem enticing, doctors know that information without interpretation may not be very useful. This high-level scientific meeting explores ways to better use existing research data in order to improve clinical oncologists’ personalised treatment programs for cancer patients.

The 2nd edition of the Molecular Analysis for Personalised therapy meeting (MAP) was held 23-24 September 2016 in London, UK. Medical oncologists, interns, academics, regulators, industry R&D reps and investigators attended this important gathering to discuss clinical interpretation of molecular tests for metastatic cancers.

A joint initiative of Cancer Research UK, UNICANCER and ESMO, this conference shines a light on the latest medical developments in a constantly evolving field.
