5th Microbiome Movement Drug Development Summit 2020 - Digital Event

Call for Papers

The Microbiome Movement - Drug Development Summit continues to be the industry-leading forum to help forward thinking researchers from the pharmaceutical, biotech and academic community pursue the causal role of the human microbiome in disease, to create a new generation of targeted treatments that demonstrate consistent clinical outcomes and predictable MoAs.

If you are, or would like to be, a player in the microbiome arena, this is the conference you should attend to not only hear the latest pre-clinical and clinical development from organizations developing microbiome-based therapeutics, biomarkers and diagnostics, but also to make long-lasting connections that will accelerate your microbiome developments forward, and help translate this promising science into a reality for patients.

- Pre-Clinical Development and Mechanisms of Microbiome-based Therapeutics

Learn how industry and academic pioneers are developing novel microbiome platforms to identify new targets and therapeutics across a range of microbiome-targeting modalities and disease phenotypes

- Clinical Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization of Live Biotherapeutics

As the industry prepares for pivotal clinical readouts this summer, this year's discussion will give you the knowledge and insight required to navigate through the specific translational, clinical and manufacturing challenges for live biotherapeutics

- Microbiome-based Biomarkers, Diagnostics and Patient Stratification

Mine the human microbiome to discover new biomarkers of disease and help predict response, understand drug metabolism and develop non-invasive diagnostic tools

- Applications in Oncology

Gain a comprehensive insight into the most exciting disease target in microbiome research today with case-studies and discussion from leading cancer researchers, oncology-specific clinicians and the pharmaceutical industry

Time: 09:00 to 17:00
