About Next Generation Diagnostics Summit 2018
Since 2009, the Next Generation Diagnostics Summit, a division of Cambridge HealthTech Institute, has united the diagnostics community to discuss trend-setting developments, milestones, challenges and opportunities in the industry. A decade later, the diagnostics industry has paved the path to the precision medicine era with tremendous advancement in rapid and non-invasive testing, cancer detection and monitoring, and expanding applications of clinical sequencing. As the market demands faster and more precise diagnostics, and regulatory and reimbursement conditions continue to evolve, diagnostic professionals need a comprehensive event that can help them build partnerships, gain industry knowledge, and network with and learn from their peers. Next Generation Dx Summit provides a venue to advance the science of diagnostics and improve the practice of medicine.
