Activity Overview 

Since the Biomarkers 101 introductory presentation, the FDA and NIH Biomarker Working Group has updated their original 2018 BEST Resource. The new BEST Resource was released in 2021. This presentation will highlight changes made to the resource and revised categories of biomarkers as well as provide a resource for evidence-based application of biomarkers in clinical pharmacy practice.
