Quanterix Seminar Series- What Lies Beneath: Applications of Ultra-Sensitive Immunoassays in Clinical and Translational Research

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Oct 28, 2016 - We recently participated in the inaugural  Powering Precision Health Summit  as a platinum sponsor. Following the success and excitement of that event, we thought this was a great time to take the show on the road! Join us to hear how the ability to measure biomarkers at the earliest stages of disease progression and treatment monitoring is leading to new understanding of the biology of health and disease.

We will have a set of stimulating presentations in the areas of Oncology, Neurology and Cardiology by Quanterix user's and helpful workshops led by some of the key scientists on our Quanterix team. 

Date:  November 3, 2016

Time:  9:00am-4:00pm

Location:  San Francisco, CA at the Hilton Garden Inn San Francisco Airport North
