Making accurate diagnostics
available where needed most .
The diagnostic gap
Infectious diseases disproportionally affect lower- and middle income countries, where limited access to accurate diagnostics prevents adequate treatment and contributes to growing antimicrobial resistance. Current technologies are either not accurate or not well suited to resource-limited settings.
The Spotlight Dx solution
Our bioluminescent molecular diagnostics platform enables rapid on-site detection of pathogens with a simple and affordable camera-based reader device and minimal hands-on time. Spotlight Dx was founded with the mission to make this diagnostic technology accessible in low-resource settings.
