METABOLON @

AACR Annual Meeting 2024
(American Association for Cancer Research)

  • San Diego Conference Center, California, USA
  • April 5 - April 10 2024
  • Booth #3458

Metabolon is thrilled to return as an exhibitor at the AACR Annual Meeting 2024.

The AACR Annual Meeting is the focal point of the cancer research community, where scientists, clinicians, other health care professionals, survivors, patients, and advocates gather to share the latest advances in cancer science and medicine. From population science and prevention; to cancer biology, translational, and clinical studies; to survivorship and advocacy; the AACR Annual Meeting highlights the work of the best minds in cancer research from institutions all over the world.

Metabolomics can offer insights into the dynamic metabolic alterations underlying cancer development and progression. It enables the comprehensive profiling of small molecules within cells, tissues, and biofluids, unveiling metabolic signatures specific to different cancer types and stages. These signatures serve as potential biomarkers for early detection, prognosis, and treatment response assessment, facilitating personalized cancer care. Moreover, metabolomics integration with other omics can enhance our understanding of cancer biology and facilitate the discovery of innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
