SoHC's Take
The departure of Michael Dougherty as CFO marks a significant transition for bioAffinity Technologies, especially as the company continues to advance its noninvasive lung cancer diagnostic, CyPath® Lung. However, with J. Michael Edwards stepping in as interim CFO, bioAffinity benefits from a seasoned leader with deep knowledge of the company’s financial operations, ensuring continuity. This strategic move may also bring fresh perspectives and stability as bioAffinity navigates the evolving biotechnology landscape and its ambitious goals in cancer diagnostics.
