Liquid Biopsies 2019 is organized by SelectBio and will be held from Mar 27 - 29, 2019 at Coronado Island Marriott Resort & Spa, Coronado, California, United States of America. Conference Description: This conference focuses primarily on biofluid-based molecular biomarkers, such as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as well as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), and protein-based circulating biomarkers.

The conference further explores the potential of various minimally-invasive circulating biomarker classes, such as circulating-free DNA (cfDNA), CTCs, and Extracellular Vesicles (EVs), for development of novel diagnostics for early disease screening, patient monitoring and minimal residual disease detection. Topics: • Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs): Potential for Development of Liquid Biopsies • Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA): Potential for Development of Liquid Biopsies ○Emerging Technologies and Emerging Companies Showcase ○Technology Platforms for Interrogation • Extracellular Nucleic Acids in the Circulation: Circulating Free DNA, Extracellular RNAs and Circulating microRNAs/Long Non-Coding RNAs • Microfluidics Platforms for Diagnostics Development • US vs. EU vs. Asia/Pacific Regulatory Landscape for Liquid Biopsies Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
