Wyss Institute, Walt Lab for Advanced Diagnostics

The Walt lab pioneers technologies that advance the analysis of key biomolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, metabolites, enzymes, and extracellular vesicles. Its innovations, such as Single Molecule Arrays, have expanded the limits of high-sensitivity biomarker detection. The lab brings together an interdisciplinary team of chemists, biologists, biomedical engineers, computer scientists, physicians, and other researchers to develop new technologies and apply them to human disease, with a focus on cancer, infectious diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders.
