Panel discussion: Tools & Dx & pharma – are the industries merging (again)?
When COVID took us all by surprise, the life science world needed to come together and reestablish
an effective workflow between the lab, the diagnostic market and pharma developing new therapies
and vaccines. Recently, Pfizer decided to provide a warrant to refund the cost for their Xalkori lung
cancer treatment in case it’s not effective, bringing the commercial success of diagnostics and
therapy even closer together. Find out what our panelists who often combine tools, diagnostics and
therapies have to say about the future of the industry.
3:00 pm - 3:40 pm
40min
Panel discussion: Outlook 2030 - Which trends in diagnostics have investors on the radar?
Our panel of experts will share their thoughts and predictions on the future of diagnostics and the trends that will shape the industry in the coming years. This is a unique opportunity to hear from leading voices in the field and gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Don’t miss this chance to stay ahead of the curve and prepare for the future of diagnostics.
