Company Description Presage Biosciences was founded in November, 2008 based on technology invented in the laboratory of Dr. James Olson, a pediatric oncologist focused on brain tumors. Frustrated by a lack of tools to identify pre-existing resistance to oncology drugs in his patients, Dr. Olson’s team developed a strategy to assess tumor responses to drug treatments empirically, before subjecting patients to a treatment cycle, frequently with side effects. Presage is using Dr. Olson’s invention to improve the lives of cancer patients though drug development applications.
