The goal is to have a breast cancer test at a point of care, say—at your family doctor’s office.
And regularly.
In this episode, you will hear about
- DNA origami and DNA as a building material
- the role of microRNAs
- and how a love for basketball led to becoming a DNA scientist
My guest, Dr. Ivana Domljanovic, is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Fribourg and a scientist at Xemperia. She was awarded the Swiss Nanotechnology PhD Award for the invention of novel patented DNA origami biosensor.
Xemperia is a Swiss startup, headed by Prof. Ruegg Curzio, on a mission to reduce breast cancer mortality by detecting and addressing cancer at its earliest stage. Ivana works there on developing a rapid blood test for breast cancer detection and the early detection of relapses.
