2010 GoldLab Symposium – Time: The Crucial Fourth Dimension of Personalized Medicine

GoldLab announces the upcoming GoldLab Inaugural Symposium 2010--Time: The Crucial Fourth Dimension of Personalized Medicine scheduled for Friday, May 14th and Saturday, May 15th 2010.

During the US healthcare deliberations, the words invention, technology, diagnostics, and wellness were mentioned rarely, if ever. No one said “revolution in healthcare” and yet a healthcare revolution is underway. Never before could a physician peer into the body, blood, or DNA of a patient and “see” the risk of disease for that person or “see” a disease at such an early stage that intervention might be crucial. That vision defines Personalized Medicine, which includes actionable measurements of genotype and phenotype - DNA and proteins.

For the Inaugural Symposium we have invited medical and scientific thought leaders and stakeholders to debate and inform each other and the audience. The goal is to facilitate the most timely transformation of medicine. “Our motivation is simple,” said Dr. Larry Gold, Professor, MCDB, University of Colorado and CEO of SomaLogic, “Scientists are responsible for innovations; scientists also must participate in discussions that enable the timely use of those innovations.” An informed citizenry is at the heart of an improved healthcare system.
