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.

Model Wars
On the surface, the modeling industry in the 80s was about parties and pretty clothes, but underneath the flash, there were drugs, sex, and violence. And Paul Fisher, a former straight-A student from the San Fernando Valley, rose to prominence amidst the turmoil. After a chance encounter with an alleged mobster, Paul suddenly found himself with a million dollars in funding and the chance to start a modeling agency in New York City. The city was then embroiled in a “model war” between industry titans Eileen Ford and John Casablancas, and Paul tried to make his mark. But even as Paul thrived in the party-heavy culture of the time, burning cash like a furnace, he came face to face with the darkest forces in the industry. As his shady backers put the screws to him, Paul faced down deadly consequences, trying to make a star while saving his soul.
