Day 1 - Clinicians' workshop

This workshop will provide a platform for experts in the field of Precision Medicine (functional genomics) to share their knowledge, experiences, and success stories. Through an engaging training and education program of keynote presentations, panel discussions, interactive sessions, and networking opportunities, participants will gain insights into how functional genomics is revolutionising patient care. The event will emphasise real-life case studies and practical applications, ensuring that attendees understand the direct impact of genomics research on disease diagnosis, treatment, and management.
