08:00 - 11:15 | Cancer Genomics Workshop | Registration Fee: EUR 30 Room: Tokyo (1982) Maximum participants: 60 View More Details + Objective/Description
Genomic medicine is revolutionizing patient care. Of all specialties, oncology has been most affected as next-generation sequencing of tumor specimens to find drug-targetable mutations has entered clinical practice. Treatment of lung cancer has been especially impacted by this new testing paradigm. As such, oncologists must be conversant with the fundamental aspects of clinical genomics. Using a case-based, interactive, small-group approach, faculty will review introductory principles related to genomic assays, interpretation of results and application to patient care. The workshop will also include practical hands-on instruction with the use of online genomic pathology tools. As such, participants should bring a tablet or laptop (preferred) if available to facilitate participation in this aspect of the course. Each exercise consists of:
