In 2020, attendees discovered the latest advances in Liquid Biopsies Techniques and Technologies and their Clinical Applications. There was a focus on novel methods, research techniques, advances and discoveries in the field, through research applications utilizing technologies such as qPCR, Digital PCR and NGS. Presentations explored the detection and analysis of circulating biomarkers such as cell-free DNA, (cfDNA), circulation tumor cells (CTCs), and extracellular vesicles (EVs), as well as the growing field of single-cell analysis and the use of different fluids for non-invasive testing.
“I met leading companies/biomarker developers at one place sharing cutting edge technologies”.
“Interesting mixture of topics; possibility to discuss with the attendees”
“Learned a lot from some of the talks”
The meeting was co-located with the 7th qPCR & Digital PCR Congress and the 2nd Flow Cytometry Congress. Attendees had full access to all three meetings.

×The complexity of biology requires technologies to describe and experiment on biological systems at previously inaccessible scale and resolution. Multiomic cytometry is a powerful technique enabling ultra-high parameter cellular phenotyping at single cell resolution. Simultaneously measure hundreds of cell surface epitopes, thousands of mRNA transcripts, antigen receptors and their cognate antigens, and more, cell by cell. Multiomic cytometry uses biomolecules conjugated to oligonucleotide barcodes to detect and quantify cellular analytes, turning a next-generation sequencer into an ultra-high parameter cytometric detector. 10x Genomics Multiomic Cytometry Solutions feature a fast turnaround time, flexibility to choose either whole transcriptome or targeted gene expression, diverse sample compatibility, and an extensive compatible partner catalog of antibody and antigen specificity reagents. Explore and visualize multiomic data types with easy-to-use data analysis software. Collectively, these capabilities enable discovery of novel cell types, functions, and biomarkers; ultra-high resolution characterization of complex tissue types; identification of rare cell populations; regulatory relationships between genes; and tracking of cell trajectories through development, health, and disease. Join us for this seminar to learn how Single Cell Multiomic Cytometry Solutions from 10x Genomics can help push the boundaries of your research.
