Targeted therapy and personalised medicine is becoming a real possibility to benefit our patients with lung cancer.

Effective biomarker based medicine is a new paradigm, requiring coordination and integratng the skills of the diagnostic thoracic physician, interventional radiologist, clinical and molecular pathologist, laboratory scientist, surgeon, radiation and medical oncologists together with the rest of the multidisciplinary team.

In this Workshop, expert researchers and clinicians from Australia and overseas will work with delegates in an interactive session to share knowledge, gain ideas on how to translate the explosion in biomarker medicine to the clinic to benefit for our patients in a cost-effective way.

We invite you to join us for this satellite workshop and to contribute to the advancement of targeted therapies for lung cancer in clinical practice.  Numbers will be capped to ensure adequate interaction - first come first served!
