Fantastic ctDNA MRD session #KSMO2025 Take home- improved assays are coming. We need better tests & a better understanding of tests, and quick generation of clinical utility data. 76th floor @MGHCancerCenter #gionc @KlempnerSam picture not capturing the beautiful Seoul skyline
Excellent ctDNA MRD session today at KSMO 2025, which included great talks including clinical data and clinical trials by @aparna1024. I had the opportunity to do a bit of a technological deep dive in my talk which was fun. Afterward, 76th floor of Lotte Tower to celebrate!
