About this event
- Date and time Tue 30 Jan 2024 from 8:30am to 31 Jan 2024 at 5:05pm
- Location Royal Society of Medicine
- Organised by Pathology, The Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland
Join us for this stimulating event to explore the role of pathology in underpinning personalized and precision medicine. Cutting-edge techniques, such as single cell analyses, computational pathology and artificial intelligence, will be explored to enable an understanding of how the data acquired from tissue interrogation translate into patient management.
This meeting is a fantastic opportunity to hear from and talk to researchers who are world-renowned experts in their field as well as connect and network with your peers.
By attending, you will:
- Learn about the latest theories on the evolution of cancer
- Understand how the immune response can be manipulated to destroy tumour cells
- Explore how AI can extract biologically and clinically relevant information from histological images
- Understand how information from single cells and their location can inform disease biology
- Learn about the genetic basis of non-neoplastic diseases
