Biomarkers Discovery
Biomarkers are molecules found in blood, body fluid, or tissue that denote a process or condition. Biomarkers are evaluated to see how the body is responding to a treatment or to access which treatment would be most optimal for a specific patient. Biomarker discovery describes the process of identifying new biomarkers to help promote health and well-being.
