Phil serves as the Chief Sci­en­tif­ic Offi­cer at Kan­vas Bio­sciences. Phil honed his skills in FISH-based mea­sure­ment tech­niques as a post­doc­tor­al fel­low at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Penn­syl­va­nia. Moti­vat­ed by a pur­suit to advance biotech­nol­o­gy and enhance human health, Phil has pio­neered inno­v­a­tive diag­nos­tic tech­niques for infec­tious dis­eases, employ­ing DNA sequenc­ing and sin­gle-cell ​‘omics method­olo­gies. He has also devel­oped image-based screen­ing tech­niques to study tis­sue regen­er­a­tion process­es in both injury and dis­ease in the GI tract. After obtain­ing a Bach­e­lor of Sci­ence from Vil­lano­va, Phil recieved his Ph.D from Cor­nell University.
