Based on our successful first edition in 2024, MD.be will organize its second Belgian cfDNA Oncology meeting on 26 November 2026 in the Pullman hotel in Brussels. The meeting aims to inform you about the latest developments in the fast-growing field of cfDNA analysis, with a focus on Belgian initiatives in research and diagnostics in oncology.
