Schlumpberger is a recognized expert in POC diagnostics and a seasoned senior executive with more than 20 years in the life sciences industry.

His breadth of experience in POC diagnostics will be instrumental as we accelerate the commercialization of the eLab system worldwide,” said Garrett Gruener, Chairman of the Nanomix Board of Directors.
“I am thrilled and excited to join Nanomix,” said Schlumpberger. “I truly believe the Nanomix eLab® system is the best POC diagnostic technology on the market today, which is why I chose to join the Nanomix management team. Nanomix’s quantitative and highly sensitive detection platform that performs a range of in vitro diagnostic assays, including but not limited to sepsis diagnosis and monitoring, has the potential to transform POC diagnostics.”
