“I’m so impressed by the number and quality of pharma partnerships PrecisionLife has already established, and excited by the potential for so many more across a range of disease areas,” says Gerald. “There is huge untapped potential for the company’s technology and IP to be applied in healthcare, which we’re just starting to explore. It’s hard not to be excited by the impact this could make on the prediction and treatment of complex chronic diseases for patients.”

“We’re delighted to welcome Gerald and Hannah to the PrecisionLife team at a time when our deep disease insights and patient stratification biomarkers are finding important new markets and bringing precision approaches to the early, more accurate diagnosis and care of patients with complex chronic diseases,” said Dr Steve Gardner, PrecisionLife CEO. “They will drive our collaborations with CROs, diagnostics and healthcare organizations to bring a new generation of simple, cost-effective and highly predictive tests to market in diseases like endometriosis, ME/CFS, long COVID and ALS where there is massive unmet medical need.”
