3rd Personalized Medicine Conference

30 May 2019 - 02 Jun 2019

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Chairs

Synopsis

New diagnostic technologies and therapeutic approaches are being developed and implemented which will transform patient management in the near future. As with the previous two meetings, this conference will include academic scientists and industry leaders. In addition to topics discussed at the previous personalized medicine conferences, for 2019 we plan to add speakers in particularly timely topics such as pharmacogenomics, machine learning, and high throughput drug screening, all of which have the potential to truly transform the practice of medicine.

Attendees at the previous Personalized Medicine Conferences found the mix of topics stimulating and informative.

"I love the PM conference. It provides an excellent opportunity to confer with a small group of leaders in the field at a great location to talk about real strategies for developing and implementing personalized medicine." Daryl Pritchard (Invited Speaker)

"Once again thank you for such an incredible opportunity and for putting on a brilliant conference. Hopefully I’ll see you at another event soon." Lilian Hunt (Poster Presenter, Student)

"I can't say enough thank you and all your help really made our family's trip to Cancun so enjoyable. Of course, the science was the most enjoyable piece, which would not happen without your outstanding arrangement. I look forward to the 3rd personalized medicine fusion conference…" Rong Fan (Short Talk, Delegate)

Location

Originally a bustling mining town known as the ‘Las Peñas’ in the 19th century, Puerto Vallarta is framed by the stunning mountains of the Sierra Madre Occidental of Jalisco and the immense Mexican Pacific. This fascinating destination with red roofs, golden sunsets, cobbled streets and beautiful beaches possesses everything that makes for an incredible place to visit.

Puerto Vallarta’s art offering is amazing, from crafts found in the flea market to the fleeting creations made by artists with the sand on the beach. Its art galleries, boardwalk, calm Banderas Bay waters - loved by scuba diving enthusiasts and bustling nightlife bare some of the contrasts that Vallarta holds.

There are many activities you can enjoy during your fee time such as visiting the El Salado estuary, going on horseback up the Quimixto waterfall or taking a tour of Banderas Bay. You may also like to explore the Jardín Botánico de Vallarta where you will find orchids, bromeliads, agaves, wild palms and fern grottos along the paths of this gorgeous nature park.
