About
Marion Fillies is a researcher at the forefront of microfluidic technology for clinical diagnostics, with a primary focus on developing automated platforms for liquid biopsy and cancer monitoring. Her most notable contribution is the "MRD disk," a centrifugal microfluidic system for automated, highly sensitive multiplex qPCR, designed to standardize minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring in cancer patients. This proof-of-principle work, published in 2020, addresses the critical need for reproducibility and sensitivity in longitudinal assays, enabling more reliable tracking of treatment response and disease recurrence. While her citation count is still growing, the MRD disk represents a significant step toward point-of-care integration of complex molecular diagnostics, bridging the gap between laboratory research and clinical application. Fillies’ work is particularly impactful for its potential to reduce manual error and increase throughput in repetitive cancer monitoring assays, making her a key contributor to the field of microfluidics and precision oncology.
