The 4th CRISPR MEDiCiNE Conference (CRISPRMED27) | Hybrid | Copenhagen, Denmark | April 19–22, 2027
**official website is live**
CRISPRMED27 brings together the global CRISPR and gene editing ecosystem for four days of scientific exchange, translational innovation, regulatory dialogue, patient perspectives, and industry collaboration in Copenhagen, Denmark, April 19-22, 2027.
As a fully hybrid event, the 4th edition of the CRISPR Medicine Conference is expected to welcome more than 1,000 onsite and online participants, including pioneering researchers, biotech and pharma leaders, clinicians, investors, patient advocates, regulators, technology providers, and patients and families helping shape the future of genomic medicine.
Attendees will gain access to a highly curated scientific programme featuring cutting-edge research, clinical and translational advances, regulatory perspectives, patient voices, hands-on workshops, satellite meetings, and emerging commercial opportunities across the CRISPR and gene editing landscape.
CRISPRMED27 uniquely connects science, medicine, industry, regulation, infrastructures and patient communities to accelerate the future of genomic medicine for rare diseases and complex cancers.
More details on speakers, committees, programme details, workshops, satellite meetings, and participation opportunities will be announced in the coming weeks (official website will be live June 26th).
