Precision Medicine West 2027
Hilton San Diego Bayfront, CA
October 7–8, 2027 · Hilton San Diego Bayfront, San Diego, CA.

Two days that move your precision medicine decisions forward. At Precision Medicine West you hear the latest science across four programs, meet the R&D leaders, clinicians, data scientists, investors and technology providers working on the same problems, and leave with choices tested and partners found.
What you get from two days in San Diego
- Better decisions, sooner: pressure-test biomarker, CDx, data and AI choices before you commit budget.
- The missing link: the partner, capability or expertise you need, across the table.
- Less risk on what's coming: regulation, diagnostic strategy and AI adoption, from teams already working through them.
- A real benchmark: senior peers from pharma, biotech, academia and healthcare.
- More from one trip: four programs in place of several specialist meetings
