#Academics and #pathologists have many concerns about the #FDA #ProposedRule to Regulate #LDTs like physical products, rather than #medical services. #Access, #innovation, and #PatientCare may all suffer. Listen to our #podcast discussion here:

Some thoughts from @WSJ about the recently unveiled #FDA proposed #rule regarding massive additional regulation on #laboratory Developed #tests (#LDTs). Despite the hype from the Agency, #patients are likely to suffer due to proposed changes.

Ten years back in @Amp v. @myriadgenetics the US #supremecourt unanimously invalidated patents on human genes. Take a moment to acknowledge that historic decision and the impact of the ruling on #MolPath #MolDx Thank you AMP for reminding us 🧬
On the 10th anniversary of AMP v. Myriad (2013), AMP reflects on how the Supreme Court’s 9-0 ruling invalidating #genepatents revolutionized the way diseases are diagnosed and contributes to improved patient outcomes. #precisionmedicine #genetictesting vimeo.com/828430768?shar…

"The field of #molpath has flourished since 2013," said [@Molecular_MD]. This growth "would not be possible if companies, universities, or other institutions held patents that gave them testing monopolies on gene sequences." ow.ly/gzFA50ONy0H #genepatents

Well-deserved recognition for the @UW Husky Coronavirus Team’s work over the past 3+ years! At multiple, critical points during the #COVID19 #pandemic, this program allowed for critical community testing and preservation of #clinical #lab resources.
Congrats to the Husky Coronavirus Testing team for winning the 2023 UW Excellence Award for Innovation. They deserve a ton of recognition for their tireless work making the @UW community a safer place during the pandemic, but why the innovation award? 🧵
