Join us for a continuation of our conversation with David Barrett, CEO of the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy, on successfully navigating the changing medical conference landscape. David will speak to designing medical conferences that deliver value and opportunity for all those involved. He will touch on scientific posters, metrics, patient inclusion in medical conferences, and the need to translate complex information into more digestible formats, even for HCPs. Be better prepared for the medical conferences of the future!
