A year ago, the WHO declared Covid-19 to be a worldwide pandemic.  Within a year, several vaccines were developed and most of the world will have been vaccinated against this virus by the end of this year.

Not so for cancer.  Despite decades of research, a cure for the many varieties of this disease has remained elusive, although there have been steady improvements in survival rates for many cancers.  It is a particular problem in the UK, which ranks No. 30 in a list of survival rates by country.  Improving access to existing diagnostic methods - biopsy and imaging - will lead to some improvement in survival rates, but to move most diagnoses from the current stages 3 & 4 to stages 1 & 2 will require development of more sensitive technology.

The Cancer Diagnostic Technology Summit will review the current state and future opportunities for new cancer diagnostic technology by bringing together leading academic researchers with industry - recognising that commercial support is needed to advance new technology from the lab to clinic.  See the invited and keynote speakers.

The diagnostic technologies to be considered include:

  • Liquid Biopsy
  • Breath Biopsy
  • Cell sorting
  • Imaging
  • AI

In addition, the conference will include a panel discussion lead by CRUK and Sensor100 on how to advance survival rates in the UK. 

Registration is now open; join the Cancer Diagnostic Network.  Registration gives access to web and mobile apps, designed to facilitate networking among delegates, speakers and exhibitors through the on-line Community.  Commercial and other organisations who wish to join the Exhibition, please contact  michael@sensor100.com.
