Technologies 2

• Extracellular Vesicles for Biomarker Detection
  A non-invasive method to identify biomarkers of disease across cell types and develop diagnostics and monitoring systems.
• Kidney Engineering Technology for New Tissue Replacement Therapies
  Trestle Biotherapeutics licensed 3D bioprinting, and stem cell and kidney organoid engineering methods to help it create kidney repair and replacement therapies. These could become new standard-of-care options beyond dialysis and kidney transplants for patients with kidney failure.

Collaborations 3

• Brigham-Wyss DxA
  The Wyss DxA's clinical partners from Brigham and Women’s Hospital identify the most pressing unmet diagnostic needs, provide access to high-quality patient samples for our Biomarker Discovery Laboratory (BDL) and Brigham-Wyss DxA collaborators, and provide invaluable feedback and guidance on the engineering and validation of cost-effective, sensitive, and specific diagnostic tests.
