I’m excited to announce I am speaking at #RExPO26 in Berlin this September – the 5th international conference on Systems Medicine, AI and Drug Repurposing, organised by the EU-funded initiative @REPO4EU. In my talk, I will present (add title of your talk here, or a summary of the topic + consider tagging other authors involved in your research and your organisation, if relevant).
I look forward to connecting with international clinicians and researchers as well as patient representatives, policy-makers and other experts, to exchange ideas on how we can advance precision medicine for patients across the globe. If anyone in my network is interested in attending, here’s all the information about the conference: https://repo4.eu/rexpo26/
