The Future Ain’t What It Used to Be

The Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) together with its partnership with City of Hope, is
transforming medicine through the power of genomics and precision medicine. The future of medicine is no
longer distant—the future is now, starting right here in Arizona as a leader in biomedical research.
Join HBA-Phoenix for an evening of meaningful connections with HBA members and guests in the
bioscience and healthcare community, an overview of the bench-to-bedside innovation coming out of
TGen/City of Hope, and an exclusive tour of the TGen biomedical research lab featuring leading scientists.
TGen will present how advancements in DNA sequencing and bioinformatics are having a profound impact
on the treatment of diseases such as pancreatic cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, rare childhood
disorders, and infectious diseases. TGen researchers are translating genomic discoveries into real-world
clinical applications that help physicians deliver the right treatment to the right patient at the right time.
