Event description:
New therapeutic strategies are increasingly the result of insight from pathway biology, genetics, and genomics. This brings together therapeutics and diagnostics in a variety of new ways, supporting new business models, regulatory processes, and reimbursement strategies. While the goal is for patients to be the ultimate beneficiaries of these changes, the interests of pharma/biopharma companies, diagnostics companies, regulators, public reimbursement authorities, and private payers can be at odds. This program brings together considerations of science, strategy, business models, regulation, reimbursement, and clinical practice to explore current trends and future direction in the field.
