Introduction to liquid biopsy and the clinical utility of ctDNA in advanced cancers

Alexander Wyatt , PhD
Assistant Professor, University of British Columbia

Talk summary: Alex will give an overview of the liquid biopsy field in cancer, focusing on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). He will draw on some examples from my own research in prostate cancer, where ctDNA is emerging as a new biomarker to monitor treatment response, improve life expectancy predictions, and predict response to anti-cancer therapies.
