In recent years，In Vitro Diagnosis has become one of the fastest growing segments in the field of life sciences and clinical medicine worldwide. Statistics reveal that in 2018, the size of the global InVitro diagnosis market reached USD 80 billion while the Chinese market reached RMB 50 billion, representing an annual growth of 15%.
 

　　The rapid growth in the Chinese InVitro diagnosis market is driven by China's large population, the substantial growth of the economy, great population mobility, the increase in emerging infectious diseases，enhancement of people's awareness about health and the Government's development initiatives regarding the healthcare industry and biotechnology industrialization.
 

　　Market factors are driving the development of analytical sciences to focus more on InVitro diagnosis, and as a result, the usage of some analytical technologies such as mass spectrometers and digital PCR are experiencingincreasedusage in the early screening of cancer and nerve system diseases.
 

　　Analytical technology and testing methods are developing at an everincreasing speed. Mass spectrometry platforms have become the spotlight of Clinical medical examination, especially in microorganismidentification, neonatal screening and identification of tumor markers. Electrochemiluminescence technology is a new testing technology based on immunological technique, antibody technology and biotechnology, which has gained extensive application in clinical detection thanks to its characteristics of high sensitivity, strong stability, good repeatability and a highdegreeofautomation.
 

　　Small Molecule Testing has always been a strength of analytical technology but has been limited by various conditions of samples, and sample pre-treatment is always required. Based on the small molecule antibody technology and enzymology, Homogeneous Enzyme Immunoassay (HEIA) technology was developed to overcome the limitations on sample influences, and hence resolve the problem of mass clinical testing requirements. HEIA technology is well applied in tumors, metabolism and internal secretion diseases, and clinical sample testing has improved in terms efficiency and accuracy.
 

　　The “International Summit on Analytical Instrumentation and InVitro Diagnosis”specially invites renowned interdisciplinary experts to participate in debates on the development and application of analytical instruments and technology in the field of InVitro diagnosis, and the perspective of human health. The Summit will be one of the highlight events of BCEIA 2019.

Xiaoliang Xie
 

　　Professor Xie is an internationally renowned biophysical chemist, and the Lee Shao-kee professor of Peking University. After a career at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, he became the first tenured professor at Harvard University among Chinese scholars who went to the US since the Reform in China. As a pioneer of single-molecule biophysical chemistry, coherent Raman scattering microscopy, and single-cell genomics, he made major contributions to the emergence of these fields. In particular, his inventions in single-cell genomics have been used in in vitro fertilization to benefit hundreds of couples in China by avoiding the transmission of monogenic diseases to their newborns.
