Dr. Danks shares her journey from genetics and academia to her role helping to build a novel, ultra-rapid PCR platform designed for point-of-care testing. We dive into the science and team behind LEX’s VELO system, lessons learned along the way, and her advice for the next generation of women in STEM.
Tune In to Learn About:
- What inspired Heather’s path from genetics research to diagnostics product development
- How LEX is working to bring ultra-rapid PCR to the point of care, with results in under 10 minutes
- Why ease of use matters for real-world clinical settings beyond traditional labs
- What it takes to build a regulated diagnostic product: from the technology, to the workflow, to the team
- Dr. Danks’ guidance for young women exploring STEM careers (and why it’s okay to pivot
