Angela von Czarnecki, Technical Support Scientist @ Somalogic

SomaLogic, a part of Standard BioTools, is catalysing drug research and development and biomarker identification as a global leader in proteomics technology. With a single 55 microliter plasma or serum sample, SomaLogic can run 11,000 protein measurements, covering half the human  proteome. For more than 20 years we’ve supported pharmaceutical companies, and academic and contract research organizations who rely on our protein detection and analysis technologies to fuel drug, disease, and treatment discoveries in such areas as oncology, diabetes, and cardiovascular, liver and metabolic diseases. In today’s seminar, we have Angela Von Czarnecki (Technical support Scientist) from SomaLogic to explain how the SomaScan assay works and how it is currently being used in oncology to discover biomarkers relevant to diagnosis, disease severity, and treatment decision-making.

These papers and more will be discussed in this seminar.
