We are visionaries.
We believe that the enormous challenge of making cancer curable can be overcome only with a different approach.
Our approach is entirely empirical, we don’t take anything for granted. We re-define the challenge itself, and combine expertise from multiple disciplines into new methods and tools.
Nucleix is a liquid biopsy company revolutionizing cancer treatment with earlier disease detection, at a time when intervention can bring the greatest impact for patients.
