With significant expertise in pathology, the Company is developing a pipeline of digital and molecular tests for disease detection and risk stratification, to streamline diagnostic and clinical workflows.

Dr Will West, Chairman, Cyted, said: “Martin is a recognised commercial leader in successfully scaling technology and life science businesses. To have him involved at this stage of Cyted’s development is fantastic, as we embark on the next phase towards commercialisation.”
