Pediatric Cancer Translational Genomics
February 6-8, 2012
Hotel Valley Ho, Scottsdale, Arizona
Join internationally recognized experts in the field of pediatric oncology for a collective conversation on how state-of-the-art genomics research may be applied to the translational oncology of pediatric solid tumors.
Overall goals of the meeting include
- To learn how comprehensive genomic analysis including next generation sequencing of pediatric solid tumors may reveal promising therapeutic targets
- To discuss techniques and new strategies to identify and characterize such targets using functional genomics
- To facilitate collaborations among conference participants to investigate these and other novel targets
- To provide an informal mechanism for coordinating research and eliminating duplication of effort in the genomics of pediatric solid tumors
- To prioritize clinical and research questions and agree on best practices to help move the field forward
- To discuss the application of genomics for individualized therapy
We look forward to hearing your novel ideas and innovative approaches.
