Kristin Pothier and Donna Hochberg Author Article for InVivo Magazine
Health Advances is pleased to announce the publication of the article
"Biomarker Diagnostics: Place Your Bets Wisely" by Kristin Pothier, Vice President and Donna Hochberg, Associate in the January 2008 issue
of In Vivo, a strategic business journal for the biopharma, med-tech, diagnostics and hospital supply industries. The abstract is as follows:
Biomarker diagnostics are the linchpin of personalized medicine. But building a successful business around such tests is anything but
straightforward, given the complexities associated with both their development and commercialization. Today's molecular diagnostic companies
need to think carefully before they choose a "go it alone" strategy when developing a particular test. It may make more sense to forge a
partnership with another diagnostic company or a drug developer with the goal of sharing costs and relative risks.
