Geneoscopy, Inc., a life sciences company focused on developing diagnostic tests for the advancement of gastrointestinal health, today announced that Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder Andrew Barnell, MBA, will attend the following investor conferences:

• Canaccord Genuity 44th Annual Growth Conference in Boston
  
  Fireside chat on Tuesday, August 13, at 2:00 p.m. ET

• Morgan Stanley 22nd Annual Global Healthcare Conference in New York City
  
  Presentation on Thursday, September 5, at 3:20 p.m. ET

• Bank of America Healthcare Trailblazers Private Company Conference in Boston on Thursday, September 26

“It’s an honor to present the promising market opportunity of Geneoscopy’s proprietary RNA-based platform,” said Andrew Barnell, CEO and Co-founder of Geneoscopy. “We are proud of our technology’s ability to provide a reliable, scalable, and cost-effective evaluation of RNA biomarkers from stool samples, delivering the ideal platform for developing diagnostic tests to evaluate and improve gastrointestinal health.”

Geneoscopy recently received FDA approval for ColoSense™, a noninvasive colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test. Despite the critical importance of early detection and prevention, more than 44 million average-risk Americans remain unscreened. ColoSense stands out as the only CRC screening test that utilizes RNA biomarkers, which are not subject to age-related patterns that can lead to variability in test performance across different age groups – a challenge for methylation-based assays.^1,2

Additionally, Geneoscopy is expanding the use of its proprietary RNA technology to develop diagnostic tests for treatment selection and therapy monitoring for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Collaborating with leading pharmaceutical companies and academic institutions, Geneoscopy is striving to deliver promising tools for healthcare providers to aid in predicting and monitoring therapeutic effectiveness for the approximately 3 million Americans who live with IBD.
