Abstract:
The Cambridge Health Institute's sixth annual conference on microRNAs integrated exceedingly diverse academic and commercial interests. Included were novel technologies for microRNA profiling and nucleic acid sequencing, drug delivery technologies using gene therapy, and promising diagnoses and treatments for various diseases, especially types of cancer. The conference format comprised 42 presentations, each 25 min in length. This article gives telegraphic descriptions of ten of the presentations, to illustrate the range of conference topics. At least two other mutually nonintersecting choices of ten could have been used with equal effect.
