1 Two Innovative Events for Accelerating Science and Data Interpretations into Effective Treatments November 5-6, 2015 Hilton San Francisco Union Square Hotel San Francisco, CA Propelling Discovery through Genomic Data Identify trends, paths and abnormalities to create more effective treatments through genomic and biomarker data analysis n Improve response rates by identifying abnormalities and mutations that trigger, impact, or accelerate the disease state n Utilize genomic and phenotypic data to discover potential treatments based on genetic patterns, trends and indicators n Accelerate discovery efforts by utilizing novel techniques and technologies to understand, manipulate and treat diseases Samantha Maragh, NIST Assessing Sources of Assay Variability Accelerating Discovery and Development Through Genomics Aris N. Economides, Ph.D., Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. n Advances in Biomarkers and Breakthrough Therapeutics Leverage the discovery and identification of predictive biomarkers and liquid biopsies to accelerate disease treatments n Utilize predictive biomarkers and genetic indicators to identify diseases at a much earlier stage n Leverage big data as a discovery tool to identify potential trends and patterns that can lead to new treatments and cures n Improve biomarker discovery and development by learning about breakthroughs with cell-free biomarkers, liquid biopsies, and microrna n Detecting Expression of Oncology Targets Steven Pirie-Shepherd, Ph.D., Pfizer, Inc. Mohammad M. Afshar, Ariana Pharma Utilizing Big Data in Discovery Organized by:

2 Combining Genomic Data with Biomarker Discovery to Accelerate Innovative and Effective Treatments IBC s : Propelling Discovery through Genomic Data will provide you focused learning on how to utilize genomic data to identify abnormalities, mutations, patterns or trends within a disease. Hear practical case studies on recent genomic projects to help you discover new treatments, improve response rates, and validate indications of use for existing treatments. Leverage today s cuttingedge genomic data to ensure that the right patient receives the right treatment at the right time, every time. IBC s : Advances in Biomarkers and Breakthrough Therapeutics leverages the discovery and identification of biomarkers, predictive biomarkers, and liquid biopsies to understand and develop treatments for diseases at a much earlier stage. Hear global drug discovery experts present the latest developments in biomarkers to accelerate discovery efforts and achieve clinical success. Who Should Attend: These highly practical and technical conferences are specially designed for scientists, managers, directors and executives working in: Precision Medicine Personalized Medicine Translational Medicine Genomic Medicine Bioinformatics Genomic Data/Data Science Preclinical R&D Translational Discovery Cell Biology Research Biomarker Discovery Oncology Biomarkers Biomarker Development Oncology Immunology Cancer Biology Molecular Biology Clinical Affairs Antibodies Upgrade to the All Access Pass Whether your focus is in genomic data or biomarker discovery, it is critical for your organization to understand the science presented in each meeting as it directly impacts the work presented in the co-located meeting. Register your team for the All Access Pass today to gain a comprehensive overview of the genomic data and biomarker science you need to successful develop next-generation disease treatments. Meet Your Next Partner to Develop Next-Generation Disease Treatments Accelerate your research and discovery efforts by collaborating with global genomic and biomarker experts during dedicated networking luncheons, evening receptions and scientific poster viewing breaks. Both events include more than six hours of dedicated networking opportunities, allowing you to exchange best practices with like-minded researchers and meet potential partners who can advance your treatments towards clinical success and beyond.
