The panel discussion will be held Tuesday, May 19 from 8-9:30 a.m. in Room B304 of the Georgia World Congress Center (Building B).

"We're pleased that the Biotechnology Industry Organization recognizes the importance of this topic by selecting this panel to present."

The panel will provide expert insights, respectively, on integration and commercialization issues for biomarkers in drug development and how simple genetic tests and other types of biomarkers are poised to help curb an increasing innovation gap especially with regard to complex diseases.
