BioData World Congress is organized by Terrapinn Ltd and Health Network Communications and would be held during Nov 01 - 03, 2017 at Wellcome Genome Campus Conference Centre, Hinxton, Cambridge, England, United Kingdom.
Held with the support of the Sanger Institute, the EBI the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health and The Pistoia Alliance, BioData World Congress aims to showcase innovation, demonstrate success and break through the obstacles and barriers to ensure that the innovations in genomics get to the patient with speed and efficiency.
BioData World Congress is the world's leading event for individuals working with Big Data in precision medicine.
Precision medicine is joining the big-data club. With the advent of high-throughput genomics, life scientists are starting to grapple with massive data sets, encountering challenges with handling, processing and moving information that were once the domain of astronomers and high-energy physicists.
With the advent of revolutionary high-powered computing architecture and the exponential decrease in the cost of sequencing, this new era has now truly begun with the likes of the 100k Genome Project taking center stage in the efforts to drive genomics into the clinic.
