The first 'advanced course on biomarkers in molecular and immuno-oncology' in the Middle East took place in Beirut, Lebanon, as a hybrid meeting on 11 December 2020. The aim of this seminar was to discuss biomarker development, implications and detection modalities and to highlight advances in molecular technologies as well as the clinical applicability of biomarkers in oncology. The seminar consisted of five sessions, each discussing a special topic in the biomarker field. It also included a competition in the form of a quiz following each session. This was followed by a plenary session presented by well-known national and international speakers, highlighting various aspects of biomarkers in immuno-oncology.
