Arrowhead Publishers is pleased to announce the return of its 5th Annual Translational Microbiome Conference to Boston on April 16-18, 2019, taking place at the Westin Copley Place. As the official conference of The Microbiome Coalition (TMBC), the Arrowhead Translational Microbiome Conference was the first microbiome conference in the field to focus exclusively on the hurdles and challenges to commercial success in the space.

Conference Focus

Once again, the conference will bring together the leading microbiome companies working to successfully commercialize microbiome-based diagnostics, therapeutics, adjunct therapies and direct-to-consumer services and products across a range of therapeutic areas, from gut to skin and beyond. Expanding on this core focus year on year, we continue to offer informative, hands-on workshops, panels sponsored and directed by industry to focus on your concerns and tightly curated content that goes beyond the usual infomercials to provide tangible and useful insights to how your peers are addressing their commercial approach to the space.
Entering its 5th year in 2019, the meeting will continue to focus and build on the challenges and hurdles that companies working in the microbiome space will have to recognize and navigate in order to successfully commercialize their products. However, we are responding to requests by attendees to include more basic research, ensure more work beyond the gut is incorporated into the agenda and expanding our prior parallel tracks on nutrition and consumer products.
Conference Topics Include:

♦ Animal Models

♦ Bioinformatics Challenges

 

♦ Investment Deals and Approaches

♦ Pharma Deals in the Microbiome Space

 

♦ Intellectual Property Management

♦ The Need for Standards

  
With a broad focus spanning multiple disease states (oncology, dermatology, inflammatory disorders, among others) attendees will have the opportunity to hear the leading companies discuss the work they have underway and how they are meeting these challenges head-on to apply recent discoveries to a variety of disease processes, restoration of health and improved outcomes.

Conference Features

This year continues to build on prior exciting additions to the conference designed to offer attendees real education, insights and benefits that they can implement in their own organizations.
Focused Company-Driven Panels: Host One in 2019!
For the second time in our five years, we are once again opening our agenda to interested companies looking to drive the discussion on specific issues deeper or in another direction. Sponsoring companies identify and develop a topic of interest to them or their area of expertise, work with the Arrowhead team to identify relevant speakers and craft talking points and then drive that discussion forward at the conference itself. If you are interested in this opportunity and the chance to further the discussion on an issue of specific concern to you, please get in touch.
Focused Parallel Tracks: Host One in 2019!
This year’s conference will again feature parallel tracks, designed to bring focus to areas of microbiome work with very specific approaches outside the therapeutic field. Prior parallel tracks have focused in on consumer products, the built environment and nutrition, with speakers and topics tightly focused on the issues in the specific niche and challenges common to those companies trying to enter the microbiome space in those areas. If you feel your area of inquiry merits a deeper and more focused dive, and would like to sponsor a parallel track, working with the Arrowhead team to craft the agenda, speakers and topics most relevant to your organization and area of microbiome work, please get in touch.
Pre-Conference Workshops: Host One in 2019!
Interactive, hands-on, intensive pre-conference workshops hosted by microbiome subject matter experts working real time with the leading microbiome companies in the space to help attendees understand real-world issues and how these issues impact their business plans while providing tools and best practice tips to start implementing real solutions in their own organizations. If you or your organization has deep subject matter expertise and have driven forward successful solutions for companies working in the space and are willing to share your knowledge, insight and expertise with the attendees, please get in touch.
