Signature Scientific Microarray Conference

Signature Genomic Laboratories announces the first Signature Scientific Microarray Conference, on June 20-21, 2008 at the Doubletree Hotel Spokane City Center. With your active participation, we hope that the conference will become an annual event beneficial to both providers and patients.

Open to all Signature clients, the conference will focus on array CGH in the laboratory and the diagnostic clinic, present and future. We envision the meeting to be a venue to share both information and issues relating to the diagnostic use of array CGH. The conference will include sessions that discuss technical aspects of the technology, discoveries of previously unrecognized syndromes, and newly recognized genomic variations (CNVs). Signature has carefully structured the conference and limited attendance to allow rapid dissemination of information that will assist in driving this emerging field forward for the benefit of your patients. With an intimate atmosphere, our goal is to allow sharing of information and lively discussions to benefit all medical providers of array CGH. For planning purposes, Signature would appreciate abstract submissions focusing on clinical aspects and technical methodologies of array CGH by April 11, 2008. Please be aware that most submitted abstracts will be selected for platform presentations.
