Biography
Kevin Hrusovsky has dedicated his 30-year career to leading disruptive medical technology companies and shepherding a global movement to transform healthcare to Precision Health. He created Powering Precision Health foundation, an internationally renowned non-profit promoting a new era of medicine using biomarker innovation to achieve precision medicine. Kevin has always been committed to accelerating adoption and value creation for many “game changing” non-invasive early detection technologies for Oncology, Neurodegeneration and Cardiology which are transforming drug development and disease prevention. Before Quanterix, he was CEO of Caliper Life Sciences, and Zymark Corporation, as well as, President of Life Sciences at PerkinElmer. He is the recipient of several distinguished awards including the 2019 EY Entrepreneur of the Year®, the 2018 Lifetime Achievement Award for Leadership and the E.G. Bailey Entrepreneurship Award (2013), both from The Ohio State University.
Sequencing technologies are continuously improving, making it easier to obtain more in-depth molecular information than ever before. Emerging single-cell multi-omics sequencing technologies allow the capture of multiple modalities from a cell, including its epigenome, transcriptome, epitranscriptome, and proteome. This allows research into the heterogeneity of many biological mechanisms, and insights into complex molecular mechanisms that underpin disease.
