The 2019 Early Detection of Cancer Conference @ Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center
Sep 24 – Sep 26 all-day
The 2019 Early Detection of Cancer Conference @ Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center

The Canary Center at Stanford, founded in 2009 as the first research center in the world, entirely dedicated to cancer early detection, The Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health & Science University, a leader in precision cancer medicine, and Cancer Research UK, the largest independent funder of cancer research globally have formed an international collaboration to accelerate research in the early detection of cancer.

The goal of this unique trans-Atlantic agreement is to find lethal cancers as they’re forming so they can be treated more effectively. Survival increases significantly when the disease is treated at an early stage.

The collaboration also seeks to accelerate progress by breaking down barriers for scientists, including:

  • A lack of cohorts of sufficient size and a shortage of clinical samples available for research
  • Development and deployment of new technologies
  • Lack of understanding of the biology of early cancer and technologies to detect its features

2019 conference topic list includes:

  • Integrative Early Detection through multiple technologies
  • Prognostic Early Detection
  • Signals from beyond the tumor
  • Integrative Susceptibility for Early Detection
  • Fostering a translational mentality in Early Detection Research

The Invisible Future of Health Monitoring @ Zoom Webinar
Jun 23 @ 3:15 pm – 4:15 pm
The Invisible Future of Health Monitoring @ Zoom Webinar

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve seen the rise of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring as the paradigm of care delivery has transformed to meet patients where they are: in the home. While these trends are just now emerging to the broader public, the use of algorithms in embedded sensors, passive monitoring, implantables, wearables, and IoT devices in the environment have been used in healthcare applications for decades.

But with all of this raw aggregation, how is this data used to inform real world applications beyond research, and what does the future of invisible monitoring look like? As devices become smaller and embedded throughout our environments, how will data be used to provide increasingly precise and personalized care to individual patients?

Join Stanford CDH and PHIND on Wednesday, June 23rd at 3:15 PM PDT to hear some of the industry’s leading experts talk about embedded sensors, longitudinal data collection, the future of remote monitoring, and real-world applications of precision health technologies. The panel will feature: Nicolas Genain, MS, WithingsPablo Paredes, PhD, MBA, MS, Stanford University; and Michael Synder, PhD, Stanford University. The discussion will be moderated by Jun (Alex) Gao, MS, Samsung America.
