Join the conversation at Breakthrough West
To a person 20 years ago, today’s medicine would seem like science fiction: routine DNA sequencing, gene editing, and surgery that can help an 80-year-old Mick Jagger dance. So what will the next two decades bring? We’ll peer into the mists, looking at GLP-1 drugs for psychiatry, a new age of individualized gene editing, and the potential of artificial intelligence to reduce the failure rate of inventing new medicines. We’ll also check into the financial apparatus that is supposed to fund all this cool research. Join us for a series of high-level, interactive sessions – and join the conversation.
