Delfi Founder and CEO Elected to the Fellows of the AACR Academy Class of 2022
Delfi Diagnostics, a pioneering developer of a new class of high-performance, affordable liquid biopsy tests for early cancer detection, will present new findings from its fragmentomics-based platform at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) 2022 Annual Meeting. Additionally, Delfi executives will participate in multiple educational and scientific sessions.
Additionally, Delfi Founder and CEO Victor Velculescu was recognized by AACR for his “stellar contributions involving the discovery of genomic alterations in cancer cells and for developing non-invasive cancer detection technologies.
“We are excited to participate in this year’s AACR Annual Meeting with presentations that we think will help increase the field’s understanding of how fragmentation-based liquid biopsies can be applied to multiple applications in cancer,” said Velculescu. “And personally, I am honored to be included in this year’s class of Fellows of the AACR Academy among such talented scientists.”
