Welcome to Season 3 of the Personalized Medicine Podcast! We hope you all head a good start in 2022 and are ready to dive deep into the world of personalized medicine with us again.

In this first episode of Season 3, we address a very important and, frankly speaking, underappreciated topic of sepsis, commonly known as bacterial blood poisoning. Did you know that last year, sepsis killed more people than 5 most common types of cancer combined?

For this episode, our host Oleksandr Yagensky sat down with the co-founder and CEO of Noscendo, Dr. Philip Stevens. Philip and his team are developing diagnostic workflows based on detection of bacterial and fungal cell-free DNA from blood to detect infections.

Listen to this episode to learn more about:
◦ The founding story of Noscendo
◦ Building a successful diagnostics startup in Europe
◦ Generation of clinical evidence for early stage startups
◦ Misconceptions about sepsis and sepsis diagnostics
◦ How NGS can help detect sepsis early
◦ Role of DNA sequencing in determining antibiotic resistance
◦ Philip’s advice to aspiring life science entrepreneurs
