From Lab Bench to Breakthrough: How Collaboration is Bringing Cancer Detection Closer to Patients
Dr. Shalini Gupta, Founder and CEO of Asima Health, left academia in Canada to develop decentralized, point-of-care cancer diagnostics that make early detection more accessible. Partnering with Arete Biosciences, a U.S. life sciences accelerator, Asima is advancing from prototype to clinical validation with sites in Chicago and Tampa. The company plans to launch its first CLIA-lab-based multi-cancer test next year, driving innovation in Canada-U.S. MedTech collaboration.
