HARNESSING THE POWER OF BIG DATAIN PRECISION MEDICINE
www.healthnetworkcommunications.com/biodatawest
Organised by:
“Inspiring, astonishing and thought-provoking in equal measures. What an awesome event” Intel Health
Dear future delegate,
The worlds of science and technology have never been so closely intertwined. The potential and applications of bio data
are limitless. From patients tracking their own symptoms to doctors virtually assessing patient needs; from personalized
sequencing of cancer genomes to defeating aging through AI, it is safe to say the pharma industry will never be the
same again.
BioData World West 2017 is bringing scientific innovation to the forefront with tracks on:1. Genomics2. Precision Medicine3. NEW AI track put together in partnership with MerckIn San Francisco, over 200 participants will gather in the beating heart of innovative tech to discuss disruptive approaches
being used to drive drug development, personalized medicine, and inevitably, the clinic. This unique conference gathers
clinicians, bioinformaticians, pharmaceutical companies, start-ups and government policy advisors under one roof!
Our expert speaking faculty for 2017 includes:
Healthcare is joining the big data club. With the advent of high-throughput genomics, the debut of artificial intelligence,
and more, the industry is starting to tackle the futuristic era it finds itself in.
I look forward to meeting you in San Francisco on April 26 - 27, 2017.

GENOMICS & HEALTH
“Storing and processing genome data will exceed the computing challenges running of YouTube and Twitter, biologists warn.”
The growth of global data, not only within healthcare, is one of the greatest success stories of the past 15 years. By 2020, there will be 5.200 GB of data for every person on Earth with genomic data predicted to be largest component of this data (each genome takes up 100GB.) Big Data and Genomics is transforming drug development, empowering the patient and redesigning the clinic.
Bringing big data and genomics to unlock cures for rare diseases
• Connecting millions of data points to deliver ground breaking healthcare
• Data is frozen knowledge. It’s up to us to bring the heat to melt it
• Investing in data

PRECISION MEDICINE
Healthcare is defined by paradigm shifts in technology.
With each new technological advance, we come one step closer to the goal of every human living a healthy life free of disease. Precision medicine has the potential to cure diseases previously thought incurable. It has the potential to enhance the quality of life for millions of patients around the world who traditional medications simply aren’t working for. It has the potential to eliminate side-effects as each drug is tailored to a specific subset of individuals. Even President Obama showcased his belief in the potential when he announced the Precision Medicine Initiative (PMI) through the NIH.
Uncover advances in precision medicine from across the globe in countries like the US, Singapore, Australia, Canada, Sweden, and Finland.
Genome Asia, sequencing 100,000 genomes across the Asian population
• Despite being >40% of the world’s population - are significantly underrepresented in current genomic studies and reference genome databases even though the unique genetic diversity prevalent in South and East Asia provides a valuable source of clinical insights
• Developing a commitment to open information
• Understand biology of disease and enable new therapeutic options which will have global impact.

Connecting tumor genomics with therapeutics through multi-dimensional network modules
• Cancer cell lines can model therapeutic responses, but only partially reflect tumor biology.
• Using MAGNETIC, a new method to integrate molecular profiling data using functional networks, we identify 219 gene modules in TCGA breast cancers that capture recurrent alterations, reveal new roles for H3K27 tri-methylation and accurately quantitate various cell types within the tumor microenvironment.
• We show that a significant portion of gene expression and methylation in tumors is poorly reproduced in cell lines due to differences in biology and microenvironment and MAGNETIC identifies therapeutic biomarkers that are robust to these differences. This work addresses a fundamental challenge in pharmacogenomics that can only be overcome by the joint analysis of patient and cell line data
