Co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer, Haystack Oncology
Biography
Joshua Cohen is a co-founder and the Chief Innovation Officer of Haystack Oncology. He is also conducts liquid biopsy research with Drs. Bert Vogelstein, Kenneth Kinzler, and Nickolas Papadopoulos at the Johns Hopkins Ludwig Center. Josh has invented and developed several liquid biopsy technologies, both for cancer screening and minimal residual disease detection, including the technology upon which Haystack’s Duo™ chemistry is based. His liquid biopsy research served as the basis for a landmark prospective interventional clinical trial demonstrating, for the first time, the use of circulating tumor DNA analyses for the detection of minimal residual disease and selection of adjuvant chemotherapy in stage II colorectal cancer patients.
