French BioBeach September 2018 – Newsletter
Our newsletter keeps you in the loop of FBB’s News & Events. If for any reason you would like toYou are welcome to join us again at a later timeWhat`s going on at the FBB?
Introduction of Kevin Adam, PhD and Beatrice David Shevlin, PhD, Co-directors of the French BioBeach business platform
After Clementine Gibard beautifully took care of the French Biobeach activities and left for Idaho in January 2018, Stephane Richard is now working with two new team members, Kevin Adam, representing the more academic wing of the platform, and Beatrice David Shevlin, with industrial experience.
BECOME A
Thank You to our Partners
Kevin Adam, PhD
Native from Brittany on the west coast of France, Kevin joined the warmer west coast of the US in September 2015. With over 7-years of experience in project management & research/development and over 2-years’ experience as consultant in competitive intelligence & market research, he joined the direction of the French BioBeach in 2018. Holder of a Master`s dual-degree in Oncology from the Ecole Normale Superieure of Cachan and a Magistere of Biotechnology from the Paris-Sud University (Paris XI), he earned his PhD in Onco-hematology from the Paris-Descartes University (Paris V) as a biologist.
While doing his PhD, Kevin joined in 2012 the business incubator Quattrocento (5th French Tech investment) as a consultant in R&D strategy and innovation to satisfy his interest in innovation and industrialization. Then, he participated to the launch of the educational program Savanturiers in 2013, advertised later through the TEDx talk in Paris, to promote learning through experimenting and communication.
Currently research associate at the Salk Institute, professional scientific collaborator at The Scripps Research Institute and consultant fellow at the APDCC of UCSD since 2016, he is now intending to expand the French BioBeach network and community. During the rest of his time, Kevin enjoys the outdoors activities offered by the Californian weather and he is fervent of backpacking adventures and travels.
Beatrice David Shevlin, PhD
Beatrice owns a double master’s degree in Organic Chemistry and Pharmacology, after completing the “Magistere Chimie-Biologie” at Louis Pasteur University, Strasbourg, France, and a PhD in Bio Organic Chemistry from Louis Pasteur University (January 1995), prepared under the supervision of Dr Francis Schuber.
After a post doc at Kyoto University, Japan, she soon moved to business after earning a Purchasing Manager degree from IFOCOP Paris. She worked as a procurement associate for Clariant, in the Cuise-Lamotte factory, North of Paris.
From 1999, Beatrice has been perfecting and selling scientific imaging platforms, to academic and industrial research laboratories, first with Hamamatsu Photonics France, then in 2004, she started and optimized the European branch of Xenogen Corporation, a San Francisco Bay based company that pioneered pre-clinical molecular imaging using bioluminescence and fluorescence. Xenogen Corporation was subsequently acquired by Caliper Life Sciences, which became part of PerkinElmer in 2011.
In 2014 she moved to San Diego, and, after developing the sales of IVD devices in Europe for Acon Laboratories. She returned to PerkinElmer in January 2016 to become PerkinElmer High Content Imaging Senior Sales Specialist for the West Coast.
Joining the French BioBeach is a natural move.
Beatrice has been conducting business since 1999 in 4 different languages (French, English, Spanish and Italian), and has good knowledge of the Japanese culture.
In parallel Beatrice is deeply involved in San Diego’s dancer’s community.

Pathway Genomics Launches First Liquid Biopsy Test To Detect Cancer-Associated Mutations In High-Risk Patients
SAN DIEGO – Sept. 10, 2015 – Pathway Genomics, a global precision medical diagnostics company, announced the launch of CancerInterceptTM, its first liquid biopsy, a non-invasive screening test designed for early cancer detection and monitoring, for as low as $299.
The test detects mutations that are commonly associated with lung, breast, ovarian, colorectal cancers and melanoma, as well as mutations that occur less frequently in other cancer types (such as pancreatic, head and neck, thyroid, gastric and prostate cancers). View an animation of howCancerIntercept works here.
The test is offered for two general populations: CancerInterceptTM Detect is the first liquid biopsy designed to detect tumor DNA in high-risk but otherwise healthy patients; CancerInterceptTMMonitor monitors patients with active or previously diagnosed cancer. Both programs use advanced DNA analysis to identify small DNA fragments that are shed from cancer cells and released into the bloodstream. The tests analyze the presence of 96 frequently occurring DNA mutations in nine cancer genes.
“Early detection is the single most important factor in ensuring successful treatments and improved survival rates,” said Jim Plante, CEO and founder of Pathway Genomics. “Cancer patients and those at risk for the disease can take proactive steps to safeguard their health and fight back against some of the most virulent forms of the disease.”
In addition, with CancerIntercept Monitor, physicians are able to supplement more invasive tissue biopsies and scans with liquid biopsies to monitor cancer treatment efficacy, disease progression and recurrence. CancerIntercept Monitor can also be ordered with personalized Clinical Trial Matching for later stage cancer patients.
“Rising levels of tumor DNA may indicate progression of the cancer before there is clinical or imaging evidence of tumor growth” said Dr. Glenn Braunstein, MD and Chief Medical Officer of Pathway Genomics. “Our liquid biopsy tests may also detect new mutations that occur over time and signal that the patient is becoming resistant to current therapy.”
Testing can be initiated through the patient’s treating physician or through Pathway’s online physician referral network. For patients and physicians requesting repeat testing on a scheduled basis, a deeply discounted subscription service is available.
CancerIntercept Detect and CancerIntercept Monitor are offered through Pathway’s integrated system, which streamlines the entire testing process from initial order to delivery of test reports. Key components of the system include physicians who will review online requisitions and order the tests; mobile phlebotomists to draw blood samples at the patient’s home or office; and Pathway’s medical oncology support team, who will discuss results with the patient’s treating physician upon a positive result. All positive results are released via the patient’s treating physician. Results are delivered approximately two to three weeks after testing.
About Pathway Genomics
Since its founding in 2008, Pathway Genomics has rapidly become a leader in the commercial healthcare industry. Pathway Genomics’ success lies in its commitment to deliver innovative healthcare solutions. The company’s program with IBM Watson is the first of its kind. The program is a smartphone app that merges artificial intelligence and deep learning with personal genetic information. The app provides users with personalized health and wellness information based on the individual’s health history.
Based in San Diego, the company’s CLIA and CAP accredited clinical laboratory provides physicians and their patients in more than 40 different countries with actionable and accurate precision healthcare information to improve, or maintain, health and wellness. Pathway Genomics’ testing services cover a variety of conditions including cancer risk, cardiac health, inherited diseases, nutrition and exercise response, as well as drug response for specific medications including those used in pain management and mental health.
