Proteins are critical for the normal functioning
of the human body. They provide structure, transmit and receive
information, and carry out important chemical reactions. In persons
with a disease, many proteins may be affected. Compared to normal
health, some proteins may become overly abundant, while others
may become scarce.
By measuring these proteinsor biomarkersSomaLogic
is discovering new insights into disease and health. By combining
biomarkers into patterns or disease signatures, SomaLogic is bringing
new levels of accuracy to virtually every aspect of patient care:
disease screening, diagnosis, therapy selection, and patient monitoring.
SomaLogic uses its unique aptamer array technology
and bioinformatics capabilities to discover disease-specific biomarkers
and protein signatures. Using a simple blood test, clinicians
will have the information to transform medical practice and make
a real difference in people's lives. The approach can be applied
across a broad spectrum of clinical challenges faced by physicians.
Proteins say a lot about a person, and SomaLogic
is discovering what they say.
