Catherine Alix-Panabières, Director of the Laboratory of Rare Human Circulating Cells and Professor of Universities – Hospital Practitioner at Montpellier University Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“I had the pleasure of taking part in the 11th Liquid Biopsy Symposium, held from January 22–24, 2026, in the timeless city of Santiago de Compostela, Spain:
My sincere thanks to Rafael Lopez Lopez and the Scientific Committee for orchestrating such an inspiring and high-level meeting.
I was honored to present a lecture entitled: ‘Liquid Biopsy and Minimal Residual Disease: Tracking Cancer’s Last Cells.’
All week long, rain traced its path over the city’s ancient stones — yet inside the symposium, there was only warmth.
Warmth born from meaningful scientific exchanges, enduring connections, and the joy of reuniting with colleagues and friends who share the same passion.
We also allowed ourselves a quiet pause, stepping into the iconic Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, a place filled with history, silence, and inspiration — a moment of reflection amid intense scientific dialogue.
We also a wonderful networking evening, where games, laughter, and light-hearted competition reminded us that science also thrives on play and human connection.
And what a delightful way to begin the journey — sharing the Paris–Madrid trip with Mattpokora Officiel, setting the tone with a smile.
Grateful for these moments, these conversations, and this vibrant community. Important discussions unfolded, opening new paths and shaping future directions for our field.
Thank you all.”
