Precision medicine is one of the hottest research topics drawing much attention all over the world. It refers to the prevention and treatment strategies that take individual variability into account. Precision medicine gives us a better chance to cure diseases like cancer by making best use of our personalised information. A major component of precision medicine is to prevent tumor formation in order to reduce cancer risk, which is within our reach due to advances in basic research related to oncology. Understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms involved in the initiation and progression of cancer can influence risk assessment, diagnostic pathways, and therapeutic strategies. The overall goal of precision medicine is to improve human health by reducing disease risks and treating disease more efficiently.
The Academy of Medical Sciences of Zhengzhou University is organising this International Symposium on Precision Medicine & Tumor Prevention to provide a scientifically driven platform involving sessions led by top international experts and facilitating discussions for researchers in the field. Attendees from the fields of basic medical science and clinical medicine will share their findings to make the conference more productive. The conference will be held on 29th and 30th August in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China. Researchers and related professionals who won’t want to miss this opportunity to discuss key issues relating to precision medicine – register now to book your place.
