Growing Spokane lab joins cancer fight – Signature Genomic
MATR Sponsor (view all)
One of Spokane’s fastest growing technology companies, Signature Genomic Laboratories http://www.signaturegenomics.com , is about to take on the next big challenge in medical testing: devising a way to use human DNA to detect genetic changes associated with cancer.
If successful, the test developed at the company’s north Spokane lab will likely change how doctors diagnose cancer. Instead of using any number of tests that each identify a single type of cancer, the Signature Genomic method would scan a person’s full set of chromosomes – the genome – and find all possible DNA signatures tied to many cancers.
