Dear Sir / Madam,

Greetings from The ABC 2015!

We would like to extend an invitation to attend The ABC 2015 (5th Annual Biobank & Precision Medicine China) which is Asia’s largest Biobank & Biological Medicine conference that brings together a global network of professional to foster innovation that will conduce to the better development of biobank & medical research.

This year, the ABC 2015 will explore the latest development, share best practice and feature first-hand experience in the management of biobanks and application of biosamples, discuss on the role of biobanks in Precision Medicine with leaders of the government departments, senior professionals, top academics and leaders from global renowned institutes such as Science & Education Department of NHFPC (National Health and Family Planning Commission of the PRC), Office of Chinese Genetic Resources in Ministry of Science and Technology of the PRC, NIH, NCI-BBRB, BBMRI, ISBER, P3G, ISO, AABB and CAP etc., as well as global leading hospitals, institutions and pharmaceutical companies. Following the reviews from its launch in Shanghai last four years, ABC 2015 will focus on the biobank and biosample in Precision Medicine.

This year, the event will be organized by Shanghai Clinical Research Center (SCRC) together with Capital Medical University, National Gene Bank, Shanghai Consulting & Academic Activities Center for Academicians of Chinese Academy of Engineering, Shanghai Shenkang Hospital Development center and Shanghai Engineering & Research Center of Biobank on Sep 13th - 15th, 2015, at Lake Meilan International Convention Center.

We are preparing for ABC 2015 based on the successful event in 2014 with more than 1600 people and 21 sponsors, and hopefully you can join us this year.

Please feel free to contact us at hao.ying@scrcnet.org or 86-21-33676448 if you are interested in attending the meeting. We will greatly appreciate it if you can share the conference information to those who might be interested.

Yours sincerely

 

Yours sincerely
