ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
In this episode of Labcorp Perspectives Oncology, host Dr. Rebecca Previs is joined by Dr. Kyle Strickland, Director of Medical Affairs and pathologist at Labcorp, and Dr. Erin Newburn, field application scientist and genomicist, for a deep dive into tissue stewardship and the pivotal role of FFPE specimens in precision oncology.
Together, the team demystifies how formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples have become the gold standard in both clinical and research settings for biomarker testing. They discuss the science behind tissue preservation, compare FFPE to fresh and frozen samples, and reveal the unique challenges these specimens present for next-generation sequencing. Explore the crucial pre-analytical factors influencing sample quality and how emerging innovations are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in cancer diagnostics, clinical trials, and translational research.
Whether you’re a clinician seeking to optimize patient care, a researcher navigating limited samples, or simply curious about the future of precision medicine, this conversation provides practical insights and actionable tips directly from the experts transforming the field.
Tune in now to discover how the workhorse of pathology is powering a new era in oncology.
