UPCP - Up Close and Personalized, International Congress on Personalized Medicine 2013
The second Up Close and Personalized, International Congress on Personalized Medicine, which will take place July 25-28, 2013 in Paris, France.
Personalized Medicine is revolutionizing the medical world. Understanding and integrating genetic and molecular information with traditional clinical knowledge is the hallmark of this transformation. At present much of the medical practice is based on standards of care derived from the epidemiologic studies of large cohorts that do not take into account the individual’s genetic,proteomic, and metabolic characteristics. Furthermore, in spite of efforts to develop data-driven, expert–based, clinical decision support systems, there are no clear and simple means to disseminate new findings into clinical practice.
