Dr. Downie brings more than three decades of experience in pulmonary medicine, clinical research, medical innovation, and interventional pulmonology to the role.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDr. Downie has authored more than 30 peer-reviewed publications, many centered on innovation in bronchoscopy, early lung cancer diagnosis and medical device development. He has worked extensively in both academic medicine and private practice, led FDA-approved research programs, and served in national leadership roles with the American College of Chest Physicians in the areas of interventional pulmonology, lung cancer, and medical ethics.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s a privilege to join bioAffinity at such a pivotal time,\u201d Dr. Downie said. \u201cI\u2019ve seen firsthand in my practice the need for a noninvasive, accurate and real-time diagnostic for lung cancer. I believe <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cypathlung.com&amp;esheet=54257379&amp;newsitemid=20250520582057&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CyPath%26%23174%3B+Lung&amp;index=2&amp;md5=10f736a178c2ed1c8a197bae53b8c09d\">CyPath\u00ae Lung<\/a> is particularly useful in managing indeterminate lung nodules by filling a critical gap in clinical decision-making. I\u2019m excited by the opportunity to expand access to this innovative technology that can save lives.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn 2007, Dr. Downie left academia and opened a pulmonology practice in rural East Texas, an underserved area with limited access to healthcare. The lack of pulmonary care is exacerbated by an aging population and rising rates of lung disease, including COPD. Most recently, he was the Director of the Lung Nodule Clinic and Interventional Pulmonology at Titus Regional Medical Center.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDr. Downie earned his PhD in experimental pathology from the State University of New York at Buffalo (SUNY Buffalo) and his medical degree from Northwestern University. He completed residency and fellowship training at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and subsequently served on the faculty at SUNY Buffalo and the Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cDr. Downie brings a rare blend of clinical excellence, research insight, and innovation in delivery of care,\u201d said Maria Zannes, President and CEO of bioAffinity Technologies. \u201cHis depth of experience in interventional pulmonology and his passion for early cancer detection make him the ideal leader to guide our clinical strategy as we scale CyPath\u00ae Lung and expand our diagnostic platform to additional diseases.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nPrior to pursuing his career in medicine, Dr. Downie was an Olympic bronze medalist at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal as part of Great Britain&#8217;s men&#8217;s 4\u00d7200-meter freestyle relay swim team. He also won silver and bronze medals at the 1975 World Aquatics Championships and was a four-time NCAA All-American swimmer for the University of Michigan.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s that same spirit of commitment and discipline that has made Dr. Downie a world-class physician respected by his peers throughout the country,\u201d Ms. Zannes said. \u201cWe are delighted to welcome him to bioAffinity.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About CyPath\u00ae Lung<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nCyPath<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Lung uses proprietary advanced flow cytometry and artificial intelligence (AI) to identify cell populations in patient sputum that indicate malignancy. Automated data analysis helps determine if cancer is present or if the patient is cancer-free. CyPath\u00ae Lung incorporates a fluorescent porphyrin that is preferentially taken up by cancer and cancer-related cells. <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Frespiratory-research.biomedcentral.com%2Farticles%2F10.1186%2Fs12931-023-02327-3&amp;esheet=54257379&amp;newsitemid=20250520582057&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Clinical+study+results&amp;index=3&amp;md5=e9292db78c54a253c6b60126e5bddd9a\">Clinical study results<\/a> demonstrated that CyPath\u00ae Lung had 92% sensitivity, 87% specificity and 88% accuracy in detecting lung cancer in patients at high risk for the disease who had small lung nodules less than 20 millimeters.
