Description

Xconomy's EXOME Presents: Bay Area's Life Science Disruptors

Life science research and healthcare are a nationwide conversation. Now, with the stunning election of Donald Trump, that conversation is rife with questions. The Obama White House has used major initiatives to push innovation in precision medicine and cancer. Will those programs continue under Trump? As a candidate, Trump seemed open to addressing drug prices. Will his administration and a GOP-led Congress see eye to eye? How will the U.S. respond to threats like Zika virus, which has spread to our shores?

Xconomy wants to talk about it all. Join National Biotechnology Editor Alex Lash in San Francisco on December 6 for a post-election exploration of the biggest health and biotechnology issues across the land. Topics will include the future of national health initiatives, the intersection of Big Data and healthcare, the looming presence of genetic modification, and our national response to infectious disease.
