ASCPT 2019 Annual Meeting
Pharmacogenomics and Oncology Joint Community Meeting
Thursday, March 14 (7:00 am - 8:00 am)
Maryland Room
Despite the promise of personalized medicine, there has been uneven uptake across therapeutic areas. The Pharmacogenomics and Oncology Communities are hosting a joint meeting to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats at the interface of Pharmacogenomics and Oncology. Our agenda will include a look back at 2018 Community accomplishments, a roundtable discussion to identify possible future shared activities, and an informal joint Communities networking event. We are excited to offer presentations by young investigators in our fields and by Dr. Rebecca Blanchard, Vice President of Translational Pharmacology at CRISPR Therapeutics, who will discuss the value of pharmacogenomics and exploratory biomarker research in oncology.
