Forum Topics:

Recently,  the cancer early diagnosis and early treatment is becoming possible following  a  variety of new theories and new methods emerging.  To fully implement  the  "National long-term  Science  and  Technology  Development  Plan (2006-2020),"  to further  strengthen the international academic and medical  exchanges  for  precision cancer treatment, to promote accurate medical disciplinary research,  and to enhance China's technological innovation and development,   the  first  Beijing  International  Forum  on  Precision  Medicine  and  Cancer Treatment will be hold during June  16-18, 2016  by  the  Chinese  Medical  Association and  University  of  Chinese Academy  of  Sciences.  The  conference  will  focus on high  frequent  incidence  of  malignant tumors,  basing on large-scale clinical specimens,  associating with genomics, proteomics, immunohistochemistry and metabolomics.  The purpose is to expand our know-how to find more accurate diagnosis and precise treatments.

    1) Precision Medicine and Cancer Treatment

    2) Tumor Immunotherapy

    3) Immunotherapy on the Horizon

    4) GWAS (Genome wide associated study)

    5) Proteomics and diseases

    6) Metabolomics and diseases 

Program Purpose

Speakers are leading authorities in tumor immunology and cancer immunotherapy, bioinformatics and clinical oncologists. The talks will facilitate understanding:

1) The basic principles of tumor immunology and immunotherapy;

2) The clinical indications for immunotherapy and the appropriate selection and management of patients;

3) Emerging concepts and agents in the cancer immunotherapy field;
