Description:

PathoGene, Inc. is a private, seed-stage precision MedTech startup headquartered in Los Angeles, with R&D operations located in Monrovia, California. We are developing a sample-to-answer in vitro diagnostic medical device that detects and identifies all known microscopic human pathogens along with their antimicrobial resistance profiles on a single 6-hour test panel. To do this, we leverage robotic automation, third-generation DNA and RNA sequencing, and cloud computing technologies to report a molecular diagnosis to care providers and disease surveillance systems in real-time. Our goal is to deliver the necessary diagnostic tools for doctors and medical staff to make optimal treatment decisions that can ultimately improve public health as a whole, and we believe that our sample-to-answer technology can become the global standard of care for diagnosing infectious diseases.
