Personalised prevention aims to tailor preventative health strategies to individual characteristics, for example, genetic, lifestyle or environmental factors. The aim is to prevent or delay the onset of disease more effectively than a one-size-fits all approach. Whilst this holds much promise for improving healthcare outcomes, this promise can only be realised if we also consider some of the challenges to successful integration.
This year, the Centre for Personalised Medicine Research Showcase brings together researchers and stakeholders from a range of disciplines to explore the latest thinking on personalised prevention, in its broadest sense.
In this showcase, we will explore both how the potential may be realised and the challenges overcome, by discussing research underway at the University of Oxford, along with the wider political and social context within which these ambitions are situated.
This event is open to anyone interested in personalised prevention, including researchers, clinicians, students, policymakers, patient advocates, and industry professionals.
We do hope you will be able to join us for this thought-provoking day.
