Biomarkers, CDx & Precision Medicine 2026
Congress Centre Basel, Switzerland
Biomarkers & Companion Diagnostics
PART OF BIOMARKERS, CDx & PRECISION MEDICINE
| , ,
The Biomarkers & Companion Diagnostics programme covers the heart of the European precision medicine pipeline: biomarker identification, qualification and validation across oncology and immuno-oncology, companion diagnostics development, the IVDR-shaped regulatory pathways now reshaping the market, biomarker analysis technologies, and the clinical translation of biomarker programmes into trials and personalised patient treatment.
Across two days and seven tracks, the programme runs alongside the senior pharma R&D, regulatory, translational and academic voices defining European biomarker science right now.
Day 1 leads on discovery and validation. Day 2 picks up application: neuroscience, precision diagnostics and clinical trial deployment. Cross-programme sessions connect biomarker work directly to the computational pathology, multi-omics and AI/data programmes operating around it through the co-location with NextGen Omics, Tech & Data.

Day 1 opens with the cross-track conversation on AI for precision medicine, including Günter Schmidt (VP Image Data Sciences, Computational Pathology, AI for Science Innovation, AstraZeneca) moderating the AI in Precision Medicine Collaboration Hub on managing risk, ethical considerations, regulatory compliance and integration into existing systems.
Day 2 opens with two cross-track keynote addresses, including a senior representative from the University of Tartu Institute of Genomics on bringing the benefits of biobanking closer to the people, the Estonian biobank anchor that pairs with the Day 1 FinnGen plenary to create a population genomics thread across the two days.
Plus sessions on computational biomarker analysis, AI/ML deployment in clinical pathology workflows, foundation models for tissue analysis, and the integration of computational pathology with biomarker, CDx and multi-omics programmes happening alongside through the co-located NextGen Omics, Tech & Data event.
