Pharmacogenetics -- April 3rd Lunch talk

Thursday, Mar. 20, 2008
STS Biotechnology and Society Lunch Symposium:
Pharmacogenetics: Realizing the Promise of Personalized Medicine
Speaker: Sandra Wells, Senior Intellectual Property Counsel,
Affymetrix

Various drugs are effective for some but not all individuals, and
others have serious side effects in some individuals. Many of these different responses are genetically based. New genotyping technologies directed at biomarkers of
drug metabolism enable more informed decisions by researchers when
designing drugs and foster development of safer, more effective
treatments by clinicians. Please join us as Sandra discusses various
aspects of these technologies. This event will take place from 11:45
a.m.-1:15 p.m. in Parlors B and C, Benson Center.  Lunch will be
provided, no charge. We encourage students and
faculty to attend.  RSVP to sdale@scu.edu
