Personalized Medicine: A World of Opportunities is a one and a half day conference reflecting a distinctive collaboration of the Harvard Medical School-Partners HealthCare Center for Genetics and Genomics and Harvard Business School. The alliance of these two renowned academic enterprises presents an exceptional opportunity to address the integration of medicine and business in facilitating Personalized Medicine by bringing together perspectives from medicine, academia, research, regulatory agencies, investors, payors, diagnostic companies, industry and the business community. Participants will engage in a multitude of issues surrounding the opportunities for changing the practice of medicine by incorporating genetics/genomics into clinical practice to achieve better outcomes for patients in a cost effective manner. The conference will explore from multiple perspectives how the Personalized Medicine revolution has been put into practice and what is required on the part of physicians, patients, insurers, provider organizations, pharmaceutical innovators and the business community to ensure its future success. This conference will be unique in its depth and breadth; in its roster of prestigious speakers from government, academia and industry; and in its ability to define and address the issues that confront us, as Personalized Medicine becomes a reality.
