The Scientist | Elizabeth Cormier-May
In this contributed article for The Scientist, Mammogen Co-Founder and CEO Elizabeth Cormier-May explores why RNA may represent the next frontier in molecular diagnostics.
The article examines how RNA can provide a dynamic view of what is happening biologically in real time, and why that information may be particularly valuable in early cancer detection. Cormier-May also discusses the importance of moving beyond simply detecting disease earlier toward generating insights that can meaningfully inform clinical decisions and patient care.

BioSpace | October 27, 2026 Mammogen has announced a clinical research partnership with MammoLink, a specialized women's health imaging provider, to expand community access to innovative breast cancer detection technologies. Through this collaboration, MammoLink will participate in Mammogen's KATELYN-ERIN clinical trial, a prospective study involving approximately 2,600 women. The partnership will leverage MammoLink's mobile 3D mammography network across Florida to evaluate Mammogen's genTRU-breast™ blood-based RNA assay alongside traditional breast imaging. The initiative represents an important step toward integrating molecular diagnostics with community-based breast care, with the goal of improving accessibility and supporting earlier breast cancer detection, particularly for women with dense breast tissue.
