Biomarker Development
The Biomarker Development Team looks for new biomarkers in preclinical development and exploratory clinical development that may be exploited as readouts in clinical trials or used as predictors of safety and efficacy during preclinical studies.
They focus on safety and efficacy biomarkers for preclinical trials, exploratory clinical studies and clinical development.
