Jonathan O'Halloran's Biography



Jonathan O'Halloran, Chief Scientific Officer/Co Founder, QuantuMDx Group Ltd

With years of experience in British pathology laboratories and observing mobile diagnostic clinics in resource scarce South African communities, Jonathan O'Halloran is a Harvard educated molecular biologist who co-founded QuantuMDx to develop handheld DNA analyzers and sequencers.

The company has received funding from the UK and EU governments, and has partnered with the Gates-backed Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND).

Jonathan was recognised for his achievements in 2015 when he was awarded European CTO of the Year.

The Next Generation of NGS; What's Missing and What's Next

The DNA sequencing field has seen dramatic advances since the first draft of the human genome was published, with companies reporting ever faster and cheaper methods. However, despite the race to attain the $1000 genome producing a plethora of exciting technologies, CE is still being routinely used for targeted clinical sequencing for genetic testing and drug resistance testing for infectious disease. QuantuMDx is developing two sequencing technologies to address this;  a portable, handheld DNA sequencing device for PGx and infectious disease applications, to provide an alternative to slow and relatively expensive CE DNA sequencing and a "LastGen 2.0" technology to take on Nanopore sequencing head on, dubbed, T2T (Telomere to Telomere).

However, despite the race to attain the $1000 genome producing a plethora of exciting technologies, CE is still being routinely used for targeted clinical sequencing for genetic testing and drug resistance testing for infectious disease. NGS, third generation and even "LastGen" offer much promise for the future of genomics, but their translation into the clinic.
