About the Conference:

Technology supporting Next Generation Sequencing for diagnostic tests continues to rapidly evolve, supporting faster and more accurate results, but as with many bleeding edge technologies, at times lack clear regulatory guidance as well as industry harmonization on processes and quality controls. In order to deliver test results of the highest accuracy, laboratory operations leadership must establish robust procedures and operating frameworks, spanning both wet and dry lab operations while at the same time balancing the business objectives of the laboratory. From improving quality, productivity and efficiency to analysis of the impact of current and future regulatory action on FDA and CMS regulated tests, this meeting will provide executives with an unrivaled opportunity for industry collaboration.

  • Trends and opportunities in NGS quality control management
  • Aligning laboratory and business objectives in NGS operations
