Ventana Medical Systems, Inc., was founded in 1985 by a professor and practicing pathologist, Dr. Thomas Grogan. In the mid 1980s, Grogan and a small team of highly skilled and dedicated doctors, scientists, and engineers pioneered the automation and standardization of tissue biopsy testing. The team pursued a shared vision to deliver test results to patients faster, but it didn’t end there. Knowing that tissue contains a wealth of information that is vital beyond diagnosis, they expanded their mission to research the chemistry of cancer biopsies. Tissue-based assays have enabled physicians to personalize diagnosis and treatment options.
