ASCO 2019: The Oncomine NGS Challenge

Visit Us at ASCO 2019

Booth 5135

May 31-June 4, Chicago, IL

Let’s bring precision oncology to patients. Sooner.

We are in the midst of a healthcare transformation away from the one-size-fits-all approach toward a more targeted, personalized approach that utilizes patients’ molecular information to inform treatment decisions. NGS has emerged as the platform of choice by enabling the simultaneous assessment of all relevant cancer biomarkers in a single test, saving you time while preserving precious tissue.

Here at Thermo Fisher Scientific, we are committed to empowering any hospital lab to bring next-generation sequencing (NGS) in-house to help realize the full promise of precision medicine. That’s why we created Oncomine Solutions, an end-to-end next-generation sequencing-based approach specifically designed for oncology labs. It’s easy to implement and easy to use. Visit us at ASCO (Booth #5135) to learn more.

Get the facts. Learn the benefits. Then participate in our Oncomine Challenge at ASCO.

Are you an expert in genomics and NGS? We challenge you to prove it for a good cause. Follow our Oncomine NGS Facts of the Day on social media and then test your knowledge by taking our Oncomine NGS Challenge for a Cause. For every completed quiz, we’ll donate $5 to the American Cancer Society.* Help us reach our goal of raising $5,000 to help patients with cancer get the treatment they need sooner.

It’s all happening at Booth 5135 at ASCO
