Liquid biopsy for personalized diagnosis and treatment
Dr. Chaudhuri's lab uses easily obtained samples, such as blood tests, to find cancer early, learn more about it and develop treatments unique to each patient.
Overview
Aadel A. Chaudhuri, M.D., Ph.D., leads the Liquid Biopsy and Translational Immunogenomics Laboratory at Mayo Clinic. The lab is a global leader in liquid biopsy research, a field that aims to use easily obtained samples, such as blood tests, to find cancer early and learn more about it. The lab has a special focus on cell-free DNA, early cancer detection, immunology and genomics.
Dr. Chaudhuri's lab develops cutting-edge liquid biopsy technology and finds new ways to use it in patient care. This research includes working with human biospecimens — such as tissue, blood, urine and DNA — to answer important clinical questions that will improve human health. Ultimately, Dr. Chaudhuri's lab aims to transform cancer care by providing more accurate and personalized treatment strategies that revolve around liquid biopsy.
