10th Annual International Clinical Cancer Genetics and Genomics Conference
Friday, April 22 – Sunday, April 24, 2022
Fairmont Chicago Millennium Park
Led by experts from the University of Chicago Medicine, this in-person activity will provide an interdisciplinary educational forum in which to update state-of-the-art science in translational genomics and developmental therapeutics, discuss real-world cases, curate interesting pedigrees and prepare case summaries to disseminate new knowledge and evidence-based clinical management of high-risk patients and their family members. The goal is to improve detection of cancer syndromes and accelerate progress in drug development to prevent cancer morbidity and mortality in all populations.
Upon completion, participants will be able to:
- Review advanced concepts in genetics, genomics and next-generation omics technologies transforming the field
- Discuss controversies in cancer risk assessment and genetic testing including the integration of polygenic risk score into comprehensive cancer risk assessment
- Appreciate advances in BRCA1 and BRCA2 research with special emphasis on progress in treatment of BRCA-associated cancers
- Understand emerging concepts in men’s health and comprehensive risk assessment
- Develop a globally informed perspective on precision oncology
- Discuss emerging concepts in artificial intelligence and deep learning to advance population health management
- Understand ethical, legal and social implications of emerging technologies for early detection of cancer in diverse populations
