CHI's MACRO RESULTS THROUGH MICROARRAYS 3

December 03, 2001

Cambridge Healthtech Institute, World Trade Center Boston, Massachusetts

Microarrays have become the modern equivalent of the microscope: and one can imagine the day when they supplant the stethoscope too. While there is no question that they confer new insights onto old problems, enthusiasm must be tempered with old-fashioned skepticism. So we must ask: what can microarrays reliably provide, and where is the greatest need for improvement? This conference will also examine critical questions to the application of these machines, to data analysis, and to the tacit assumptions researchers have made in the larger biological picture-sometimes without enough innovation or rigor. Lastly, we will take into account the large initial capital investment that can be a barrier to entry for microarrays, leading to what makes sense for your cents, alongside results that reward remuneratively.
