microsamplify

This episode of the Microsamplify Podcast features Dr. Cliff Morris, Director of R&D at Physicians Lab. Patients on hormone therapy can stay safe at home with home health kits from Physicians Lab that enable remote patient monitoring by physicians. Dr. Morris and the Physicians Lab team added Mitra® microsampling from Neoteryx for simple, precise blood collection at home. Patients mail their blood samples to Physicians Lab for accurate analysis. Lab results are submitted to practitioners, who also receive training & support in analyzing results.

For this episode of the Microsamplify Podcast from Neoteryx, we spoke with Remco Koster, PhD, Associate Director of Bioanalytical Science in the mass spectrometry Science Department at PRA Health Sciences. PRA is a contract research organization (CRO) that has participated in thousands of clinical trials around the globe, including trials that have led to the regulatory approval of more than 95 drugs. Dr. Koster discussed how microsampling is used in two bioanalytical labs at PRA — one lab in the Netherlands, and the other in the USA.

In this podcast, Dr. James Rudge and Dr. Neil Spooner discuss how advanced microsampling technologies have made blood collection more patient-centric. They describe how Mitra® with volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS®) has advantages in different industries and scenarios: in the lab for improved SARS-CoV-2 raised antibody testing, in healthcare for doctors and patients who prefer telehealth options to avoid viral exposure, and in clinical trials for participants who prefer to submit their blood samples remotely.

This episode of the Microsamplify Podcast features Mohit Jain, MD, PhD, from UC San Diego, who uses microsampling in his lab to study “The Non-genetic Landscape of Disease,” and more recently, to increase our understanding of COVID-19.

This episode of the Microsamplify Podcast features Jon Jin Kim, MD, who uses at-home blood collection to monitor young kidney transplant patients in the UK. Dr. Kim discusses how the CountOnMe program provides remote kits to families, keeping vulnerable kids safe at home.

In the evolving CRO industry, Clinical Trial Consultants (CTC) in Sweden launched virtual clinical trials. CTC coordinated at-home blood microsampling options and e-solutions for remote monitoring to trial recruits. These remote solutions expand the pool of trial participants.
