How Karius aims to transform the diagnosis of infections
Welcome to Pharma50Talks! Drug Discovery & Development has returned with this year’s edition of the Pharma50.
In this second episode, Pharma Editor Brian Buntz got a chance to sit down with Dr. Brad Perkins, Chief Medical Officer at Karius, who details how the company aims to transform the diagnosis of infections with a non-invasive liquid biopsy. Dr. Perkins talks about how the California startup aims to help establish a world where infectious disease is no longer a major human health threat. Brad also walks us through how Karius uses genomics and AI to enable rapid accurate diagnosis of more than a 1,000 infectious pathogens from one test, how he has seen the demand for infectious disease diagnostics evolve, how AI based diagnostics can have a broader impact on our fight against antimicrobial resistance, and much more!
