Inside Our Labs
Anastasiya Smith, PhD
Associate Director, Research & Development
“What drives me is the knowledge that what I’m working on could end up in a clinic and could actually extend someone’s life or improve someone’s life. I love cell therapy--the ability to take a piece of the patient, manipulate it in the laboratory and make their own cells function for them. It makes it feel like what I’m working on could have a real impact.”
Tara Shahim
Senior Scientist, Research & Development
“I have lost loved ones because of cancer and it has always made me think, 'Why aren't we doing more?' At Marker, we are facing important challenges and striving to come up with innovative ideas to tackle these head on.”
