Since 2009, each year the BioRN Annual Conference has been a valuable source of top information, lively discussions and networking opportunities with international experts from different fields of the life sciences.
Thank you to all participants for listening and engaging with us during the conference!
​
A big ‘Thank You’ goes to all speakers, who accepted our invitation to share their exciting research and are at the heart of the meeting. And to our sponsors for their dedication and financial support which allowed us to organize an outstanding program.

This year annual conference features disruptive innovations for personalized medicine through molecular engineering and molecular profiling of diseases. High-sensitive sensors, nano-devices and other technologies allow the continuous acquisition and analysis of individual health data, allowing detailed molecular examination and identification of biomarkers.
BioRN Annual conference showcases developments in precision technologies, their integration into clinical care and the upcoming challenges in data quality and patient data processing and storage.
