Sciences Discussion
“
Detection Technology for the BioWatch Program: Experts
Discussion
”
— August 22, 2016; The National Academy of
Sciences
Lessons Learned from Multiplexed Assay: Panel Discussion
• General approach for the multiplex project was sound
• Recommended earlier engagement with laboratories
• Recommended inclusion of operational suitability criteria earlier in the
process
• The approach may need to be tailored to reflect differences across
technologies
Technology on the Horizon: Panel Discussion
• High level perspectives from a diverse set of experts
• Consensus that amplicon sequencing most likely to benefit the
BioWatch Program within five years
