Notes on Science, Technology, and Markets
I write occasionally about life science technologies, scientific markets, and the growing role of artificial intelligence in how new tools are understood and adopted.
After more than twenty-five years working across genomics, proteomics, and molecular diagnostics companies, I’m interested in the practical question of how scientific ideas become technologies researchers actually use.
Selected Essays
- DNAfeed – AI-assisted Genetic Counseling on-demand – Early reflections on AI as a practical layer in genetic counseling and clinical delivery.
- Combining genomics with proteomics opens a new era of discovery – Why the next wave of biological insight depends on integrating data modalities rather than treating them separately.
- Cancer immunotherapy and a clinical trial dilemma – A look at the bottlenecks, incentives, and biomarker challenges shaping modern immunotherapy development.
- Observations about Helicos, a single molecule sequencer from 2008 – A retrospective on a pioneering platform and what its rise and fall still teaches about technology markets.
- Proteomics in Proximity: Co-Hosting a New Podcast – Conversations at the frontier of proteomics, biomarker discovery, and scientific translation.
About the Author
Dale Yuzuki has worked for more than two decades in the life science tools industry, spanning genomics, proteomics, and molecular diagnostics.
His career has included roles at companies developing sequencing technologies, protein measurement platforms, and analytical tools used by academic researchers, biotechnology companies, and pharmaceutical organizations.
This site collects occasional essays and reflections on the evolution of scientific technologies, the markets that form around them, and the broader question of how ideas become practical tools used in research.
Current Areas of Interest
My writing tends to circle around a few recurring themes: the evolution of scientific tools for discovery, how new technologies gain adoption in the research community, and the intersection of artificial intelligence with the scientific process..
I am particularly interested in how ideas move from early insight to practical infrastructure, from sequencing platforms to multiplex protein measurement to the emerging role of AI in scientific communication.
Stay in Touch
I write infrequently, but when I do it is usually about a development in science, technology, or markets that I believe is worth thinking about carefully.
