Functional Genomics Conference

The Functional Genomics Conference focuses on understanding the specific cellular events that occur on every level of transcription, translation, and protein-protein interactions. Speakers will present on mutations that are controlled at the level of DNA and how they are predictors for the change in function and structure in downstream products. Recent developments in gene targeting technology provides crucial information in target validation for therapeutics and application in the areas of inflammation, oncology, immunology, and infectious diseases. Also, we will take a closer look at genomic variation in relation to predicting a patient's response to drugs.
