Multiomics and Precision Medicine Joint Conference (MOPM)
November 14-15, 2026 · College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University





Multi-omics and precision medicine represent a highly integrated, interdisciplinary frontier in contemporary biomedicine. Multi-omics leverages multidimensional data—spanning genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics—to comprehensively elucidate complex disease networks. Building upon this foundation, precision medicine translates biological signatures into tailored therapeutic strategies. Together, they establish a comprehensive continuum from basic exploration, omics innovation, and data analytics to translational applications, seamlessly bridging scientific discoveries with real-world clinical care.
To cultivate this discipline in Taiwan, the Joint Conference on Multi-Omics and Precision Medicine (MOPM) was established. Co-founded in 2019 by the Taiwan Bioinformatics and Systems Biology Society, the Taiwan Proteomics Society, and the Taiwan Genomic Medicine and Biomarker Society, the platform expanded in 2020 to incorporate the Taiwan Society of Evolution and Computational Biology, the Taiwan Precision Medicine Society, and the Taiwan Society for Extracellular Vesicles. The alliance of these six major societies profoundly synergizes expertise across the life sciences, clinical medicine, and informatics.
Entering its 8th iteration and hosted by the Taiwan Proteomics Society, MOPM carries forward its core mission of fostering cross-disciplinary dialogue to explore cutting-edge research and forward-looking applications. Featuring keynote presentations by esteemed experts, academic poster competitions, and industry instrumentation showcases, the conference aims to catalyze innovative thinking and tangible collaborations. We cordially invite colleagues from academia and industry to join us, engage deeply with pioneers, and collectively propel personalized, precision healthcare onto the global stage.
