Annual conference of the
Austrian Platform for Personalized Medicine
Welcome
Announcement of the annual conference of the Austrian Platform for Personalized Medicine
Personalized medicine aims to provide the best possible prevention, diagnosis and treatment customized to the needs of each patient, based on molecular data and other relevant patient information. This interdisciplinary approach requires close collaboration between biomedical research and clinical practice and is supported by important infrastructural resources such as biobanks, DNA sequencing centers and bioinformatics expertise.
The Austrian Platform for Personalized Medicine (ÖPPM) is a strategic national networking platform for Personalized Medicine, which was founded in 2017 by order of the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF) by the Medical Universities of Vienna, Graz and Innsbruck and the CeMM Research Centre for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. The primary aim of the ÖPPM is establishing the interdisciplinary network of all interested parties and stakeholders who wish to contribute to the research and implementation of personalized medicine in Austria, as well as strategic cooperation and the fostering of the topic of personalized medicine in an international context. The ÖPPM is supported in these endeavors by funds from the BMBWF.
We are pleased to announce our Annual Meeting 2024, which will take place on 2nd and 3rd December 2024 in the Van Swieten Hall of the Medical University of Vienna and will focus on Rare Diseases, Pharmacogenomics and Precision Medicine, Cancer and Precision Oncology and Digital Pathology.
We are looking forward to a diverse and interdisciplinary program with renowned speakers from Austria and abroad, as well as oral abstracts and poster presentations.
For more information about the ÖPPM and our previous work, please visit our website.
We look forward to a successful and inspiring conference.
