DZD named one of the Top 10 Companies to Watch in personalized medicine by Clinical OMICs magazine! https://lnkd.in/gfq3XTM

Day Zero Diagnostics is a rapidly expanding company, and we are looking for motivated, talented individuals to join our team. Our diverse team works in a dynamic, engaging environment and is committed to achieving our goal of substantially improving health outcomes. If you are interested in working in an active environment with driven people let’s have a brief initial conversation.   At DZD, we are developing a sequencing-based rapid diagnostic that identifies, within hours, both the species and the antibiotic resistance profile of a bacterial pathogen. Current approaches take 2-5 days to provide similar information, a time delay that is associated with an 8% increase in death per hour for severe infections. Our diagnostic will enable hospitals to reduce patient length of stay, the overuse of expensive and often ineffective antibiotics, and most importantly, excess mortality. Our diagnostic technologies are focused on three major areas that work in tandem with commercially available whole genome sequencing technologyDay Zero Diagnostics is based out of the Harvard Life Lab next to the Harvard Business School campus. This unique facility provides us with access to state-of-the-art research facilities, a rich community of collaborators, and an energetic workplace in the heart of the world's most active Life Sciences ecosystem
