ILAR Roundtable: Advancing Disease Modeling in Animal-based Research in Support of Precision Medicine workshop

Join the National Academies’ Institute for Laboratory Animal Research (ILAR) Roundtable for a free 2-day workshop on October 5-6, 2017, to examine the path toward creating and using animal models to support precision medicine. Precision medicine is poised to revolutionize how we treat illness by basing therapeutic decisions on an individual’s molecular characteristics of disease, environmental factors and variables associated with individual lifestyle and behavior. As the field moves toward treating the individual, this workshop will consider ways in which relevant information can be obtained from the development and study of disease models in animals that are guided by individual patient data. The workshop will be held at 2101 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC and will be freely available via webcast. Learn more and register today!
