The NUS Centre for Cancer Research (N2CR) Functional Precision Medicine Asia Symposium will be held in Singapore on Tuesday, 14 November 2023. This meeting will showcase the growing field of functional precision medicine in Asia, focusing on the phenotypic measurement of tumor arising from translational research and its intersection with clinical practice. In the past decade, we have made huge progress towards applying multi-omics approaches to match cancer patients to the best treatments. Such approaches have been beneficial yet limited to small, focused populations for very specific targeted agents. On the other hand, ex vivo drug sensitivity has been long […]
