EmeritusDX appoints Dr. Vincent Funari, Renowned Genomics and Bioinformatics Expert, as Chief Scientific Officer

In a significant leap forward for EmeritusDX, Dr. Vincent Funari, Ph.D., has taken the helm as the newly appointed Chief Scientific Officer. EmeritusDX is a leader in the field of cancer diagnostics and information, known for delivering actionable clinical insights. As of October 30th, Dr. Funari brings his extensive expertise in genomics and precision medicine to the forefront of the company's leadership.

Dr. Funari's journey to EmeritusDX is marked by a remarkable career. Prior to his current role, he held the prestigious position of Chief Scientific Officer at Imagia Canexia Health, where he led the charge in developing innovative tumor profiling laboratory-developed tests (LDTs) tailored for both clinical and commercial applications. Before his tenure at Imagia Canexia Health, Dr. Funari left an indelible mark as the Chief Scientific Officer at NeoGenomics, spearheading the successful launch of comprehensive genomic panels (CGP) and revolutionizing existing PCR products into commercially vital panels that enhanced patient care.

Notably, Dr. Funari spent a decade as an associate professor at Cedars Sinai and UCLA, where his scholarly pursuits led to the co-authorship of over 35 peer-reviewed publications featured in esteemed journals such as NEJM, Science, Nature Genetics, Nature Immunology, Cell Host and Microbe, and more, accumulating over 5500 citations. His contribution to the field extended beyond research, as he played a pivotal role in advancing genomics and bioinformatics into the realm of precision medicine. Dr. Funari also served as a principal educator in Grand Rounds and fellowship programs during his time at these institutions.

Dr. Funari expressed his enthusiasm for the new role, stating, "I am extremely excited to deploy cutting edge technology to impact the patients with cancer that EmeritusDX serves.”

President of Autism Behavior Services, Inc., Andrew Patterson, reflects on the rapid adoption of telehealth, saying, "The idea of ‘Telehealth’ was really in its infancy before March 2020. We had piloted it in a few places we offer care, but the COVID-19 Pandemic accelerated things greatly. Thankfully, we have team members that adapted seamlessly to the fluidity of the situation, and families that were open to learning new technologies."

Robert Embree, Chief Executive Officer of EmeritusDX, heralded the company's excitement: “EmeritusDX is thrilled to have such a well-respected genomics authority like Dr. Funari leading our research and innovation teams. Dr. Funari will be a vital member of the executive team, leveraging years of research expertise, clinical genomics experience, a strong network, and a passion for innovation in precision medicine."

Upon embracing his new role, Dr. Funari shared his vision: "I am thrilled and honored to join the EmeritusDX team and be a part of an organization focused on providing first-in-class patient care. We will work diligently to offer a complete and robust menu for the entire cancer care continuum. I am extremely excited to deploy cutting-edge technology to impact the patients with cancer that EmeritusDX serves."
