*The 2015 IQMH Symposium* The demands of personalized medicine are upon us, and it is critical that patient tissue specimens are confidently handled with the utmost of care. In pathology, part of protecting patient safety involves having a reliable mechanism to control and track patient tissue specimens. Exact knowledge of ischemia time, fixation and processing of positively-identified patient specimens are vital in identifying whether a human tissue specimen can be utilized for subsequent biomarkers, molecular/genetic studies. This symposium is of direct interest to those professionally engaged in healthcare and medical research, and who are concerned with the handling of human tissue; in particular, pathology laboratories, tissue banks and research units. There will be interactive and plenary sessions, and an opportunity for networking and industry exhibits. *Theme:* Best practices in pathology: knowing exactly how you handle each human tissue specimen you process *Date:* June 4-5, 2015 *Venue:* Hilton Garden Inn Toronto Airport 3311 Caroga Drive Mississauga, ON L4V 1A3 * Registration* *Registration is online only.* Fee: $350 + HST (no refunds or cancellations) *Register for this event:* https://iqmh.org/Shop/Product-Viewer/slug/IQMH-Symposium-2015 ------------------------------ This email has been scanned for email related threats and delivered safely by Mimecast.
