The predictive power of biomarkers with Mark Roskey, CSO of Quanterix

2/11/2025
As more preventative approaches to health are set to take center stage, some diseases can’t be prevented but can be managed more proactively. Blood-based biomarkers, such as p-tau217, hold great promise for earlier, more proactive detection and monitoring of diseases such as Alzheimer’s, and it’s here that Quanterix plays a critical role. Their Simoa digital health platform serves as the backbone for the majority of p-tau217 tests on the market today, reducing reliance on costly PET and CSF testing and streamlining the diagnostic journey for Alzheimer’s disease. Mark has been a leader in the biotech space for over 2 decades, with a string of leadership roles before he joined Quanterix in 2014 and became their CSO in 2022. Mark joined Meg on From Lab To Launch to discuss the exciting predictive power of biomarker technology, and what the future holds for spotting and treating diseases early.
