Biography
"Like many of my colleagues, it is my personal experience with cancer that drives my passion to change the way we diagnose and treat this complex disease that touches so many lives. As we gain greater understanding of the biology of cancer, we have an opportunity and a responsibility to develop tools that arm both physicians and patients with personalized genomic information to individualize the treatment of a patient´s disease. With the advent of biologics and new targeted therapeutics, the menu of treatment options for patients with cancer is growing. It is our mission to develop tests that employ the biology of an individual´s specific tumor to help physicians select appropriate treatments from this expanding menu. We are entering an era where we have the information and means to transform "one-size-fits-all" medicine to a world where treatment is truly personalized. We remain steadfast in our mission to provide cancer patients with access to information that can empower them to better manage their disease. Oncotype DX is the beginning. Our commitment is to set no limit on the end."
