Christian Fletcher serves as the CEO of LifeBrite Laboratories, a medical research and testing company that was voted the best laboratory in Atlanta in 2016 and 2017. In the role, Christian Fletcher leads an organization that takes a customer-focused approach to laboratory testing. LifeBrite Laboratories offers services in a range of areas, including molecular pathology.
Molecular pathology is concerned with DNA analysis and with the molecular building blocks comprising organs, tissues, and bodily fluids. Health care providers may use tests involving molecular pathology to assess a patient’s level of cancer risk or as an aid to prenatal diagnosis. Other tests detect neurological disorders and inherited diseases.
Molecular pathology is also used to provide personalized medicine. Beyond being a diagnostic tool, molecular pathology is used to study treatment and the response to treatment on a cellular and molecular level. This level of information allows for the creation of personalized treatments that are based on an individual’s specific genetic makeup, lifestyle, environment, and the kind of microorganisms, such as bacteria and viruses, present in the system.
