The Medical Symposium is a forum for exchanging information, discussion of treatment strategies, and clinical development. The symposium is a gathering of experts in the field and was developed to address the difficulties in clinical development and patient treatment for specific indications, to fill the gap between researchers and clinicians as drugs transition from the proof-of-concept stage into clinical trials.
