2013 Wisconsin Human Proteomics Symposium

The UW-Madison Human Proteomics Program is pleased to announce the 2013 Human Proteomics Symposium taking place in Madison, Wisconsin on August 1, 2013.

Targeted Proteomics and Systems Biology in Health and Disease

Event Date: August 1, 2013
Location: BTC Institute, Fitchburg/Madison, WI

PROGRAM:

The Human Proteomics Program (HPP) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the BioPharmaceutical Technology Center Institute (BTC Institute) are pleased to offer this excellent symposium.

This year's exciting program features eight invited oral presentations from nationally recognized leaders in targeted proteomics and systems biology. Speakers will present a range of topics in cutting-edge proteomics technology development and their applications to human diseases including, but not limited to, cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease and virology. All talks will be presented in a plenary format.

Attendees are also invited to present their recent work in scientific poster sessions.
