ABOUT
The Genetic Revolution of the Future
The
End
of
"One
Size
Fits
All"
A wide range of megatrends are driving a change in our healthcare system and our
approach to health in general. Today, genomics is a diverse and complex field, but what can
we expect from the future? The challenges are both big and broad and do require efforts
from a wide range of actors. In order to successfully discover the potential of genomics, a
gathering
of
different
perspectives
is key.
The Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies is proud to announce the forthcoming
conference on March 18th 2016: "Genomics of the Future – The 360° Perspective", with
expert talks from Bogi Eliasen (CIFS), David Bentley (Illumina), Roald Forsberg (Qiagen),
Jan Egebjerg (Lundbeck), Ellen Thomas (Genomics England), and Mickey Gjerris (Ethical
Council Denmark).The event will be held in English and will be chaired by Peter Høngaard
Andersen, CEO, Innovation Fund, Denmark. See the entire programme
here.
Besides talks and lectures given by a wide range of subject-matter experts, CIFS offers a
platform to apply the tools and insights from the field of futures studies in
five
individual break-out sessions.
Participants will get a chance to work hands-on within
the frameworks of horizon scanning, megatrends, and scenario-planning.

Genetics is a discovery – not an invention. The advantages of genetic knowledge are
great, and if public health authorities are reluctant to take the lead, other actors with the
means
are
sure
to
do
so.

CONFERENCE DETAILS
Why Now?
The Danish healthcare system is renowned for its collection of individual healthcare data,
which puts Denmark in front when it comes to realizing the potential in personalized
treatment and medicine. The purpose of the conference is to provide the participants with a
360° perspective on the future of genomics with talks from a broad range of expert
positions, five break-out sessions on different aspects of genomics, and a guest list covering
all areas of genomics from researchers and politicians, to investors, university professors,
and
philosophers.
Navigating the
Complexity
of
Change
The Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies leverages its unique interdisciplinary
position in order to better understand the many dimensions of genomics. We provide
insights into possible disruptive forces and generate options for choices and actions. At the
same time, we work to avoid potential blind spots and empower decision-makers with
tools, knowledge, and inspiration
