Speakers giving their speeches

It is reported that, based on diseases, obtaining high-quality molecular data through advanced high-throughput histology technology, making use of intelligent large-scale data analysis tools, and combining basic biological function verification with clinical data, the PKUHSC Center for Precision Medicine Multi-omics Research aims at ultimately developing disease prevention, diagnosis, mechanism analysis and true drug targets so as to realize individualized diagnosis and targeted therapy oriented by disease molecular mechanism. The meeting was carried out under the strategic concept of "Clinical Medicine+X" development plan of Peking University and guided by interdisciplinary thinking. In the future, the Center will hold a series of disease-related forums with "integration, cross-border, cross-cutting and innovation" as the core themes, and make continuous efforts to build an authoritative, representative and sustainable international academic exchange platform in the field of precision medicine.
