Biomarkers - Gruppo di Ricerca

• TOTAL PROCESS TESTING
• PATIENT CENTERED MEDICINE
• CLINICAL GOVERNANCE
• TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Reducing Diagnosis Uncertainty with support of clinical laboratory 
For Patients: insufficient awareness of diagnostic reasoning
For Clinicians: incomplete science and technology knowledge – evidence based laboratory medicine 

Active Research projects include:

• Development, evaluation and implementation in clinical practice of disease biomarkers
• Mass-Spectrometry Analysis of Metabolites, Drugs of Abuse, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring
• Quantitative Biomarkers, Digital Imaging in Serological Autoimmune Disease – including Telepathology Network
• Standardization and Metrology for laboratory data comparability
