Hear an expert discuss how Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is utilizing
the oncoReveal® Nexus 21-gene panel to redefine turnaround time and actionable insights
in cancer care. Dr. Ewalt shares a perceptive look at the clinical need for rapid, front-line NGS sequencing, and how a unique, purpose built targeted NGS panel (Pillar Biosciences’ oncoReveal Nexus 21 gene Panel) was developed, validated and implemented clinically by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK-REACT) to complement their current comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) approach.
Webinar presenter Mark Ewalt, MD, Associate Medical Director for Laboratory Operations for Diagnostic Molecular Pathology in the Molecular Diagnostics Service, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, MSKCC.

November 2017—Binding Site’s Immunologicals Group has added two varicella zoster virus antigens to its line of products for in vitro diagnostic manufacturing and research applications. Both the standard VZV antigen and the VZV glycoprotein antigen have been designed for use as integral components within solid phase enzyme immunoassay test procedures.
November 2017—Aquaro Histology exhibited its AquaroASM, the company’s device for automating microtomy, at the 43rd Annual National Society for Histotechnology Symposium/Convention in September.
October 2017—Insight Pharma Reports has published Commercializing Novel IVDs: A Comprehensive Manual for Success by Harry Glorikian, MBA, who has more than 30 years in the global IVD field and in IVD innovation.
October 2017—North West London Pathology, hosted by Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, and Abbott have signed a $252 million managed equipment services contract for the supply of all analytical equipment and consumables, including Abbott’s Alinity ci and Alinity h series diagnostics instruments as well as its professional services and informatics solutions known as AlinIQ.
October 2017—sCMOS, with Sony’s Pregius CMOS sensor. The RT sCMOS is optimal for fluorescence microscopy, fluorescent in situ hybridization, green fluorescent protein (GFP) imaging, immunofluorescence, and 3-D deconvolution applications. Features include deep cooling, which allows dim images to be seen without becoming obscured by dark current; a global shutter, which ensures undistorted images of moving specimens; and 5 megapixel live and captured image resolution. The sCMOS is nine times more sensitive than the previous RT camera.
October 2017—Grifols and Beckman Coulter have entered into an exclusive, long-term agreement for the global distribution of Grifols’ hemostasis instruments, reagents, and consumables. The companies anticipate first commercializing systems under this agreement in Europe in early 2018.
