Circulating Biomarkers Conference 2015

The conference will bring together biomarker experts to converse with attendees in an interactive format about cutting edge technologies for capture and analysis of biomarker molecules, contributions to our understanding of tumor biology from circulating tumor cells, and the state of the debate on CTCs versus cfDNA. The agenda for this year’s event will feature updates on cfDNA, miRNA and CTC’s as well as other kinds of biomarkers such as exosomes that show the promise of clinical utility.
