About:
This is the yearly conference that serves as THE UNBIASED forum for issues relating to Direct to Consumer Genetics (DTC)!
The conference hosts the convergence of business thought leaders and academic/medical leaders.
A variety of issues will be discussed in the context of scientific, legal, and business considerations.
The conference is structured to initiate discussions on subjects relating to DTC, ranging from scientific, technology, legal, healthcare, and business considerations Each year, a breadth of subjects will be addressed, by thought leading speakers who will initiate those discussions, while at the same time EDUCATE THE PATIENT AND PATIENT ADVOCACY GROUPS!
The Consumer Genetics Conference has invited thought leaders in the fields of Genetics, Law, and Health to weigh in on the emerging field of personal genetics and molecular diagnostics. All of the speakers are seen as experts in their respective fields - thus the panels, and individual sessions will contain invaluable information as to where the field is heading and how companies, as well as academic institutes, can play a role. There will also be valuable networking sessions with, these and other, thought leaders.
