Molecular Pathology Essentials: Diagnosis and Targeted Therapy
October 1-2, 2009 in Scandic Copenhagen, Denmark
This course will feature presentations on the essential knowledge
and current practice of clinical molecular pathology, with
an emphasis on diagnosis and targeted therapy. The topics
include molecular diagnostic testing for genetic disorders,
cancers, complex diseases, and hemoglobinopathies, pharmacogenetics, laboratory
management, regulations and a glance into the future of
molecular testing. Topics will be presented by the experts.
These presentations will give the audience an increased
knowledge base, enabling them to adapt to and lead the
integration of molecular testing into the clinical
laboratory.
