The Company will leverage Raman spectroscopy and Machine Learning as part of its diagnostics

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 21, 2020) - BioMark Diagnostics Inc. (CSE: BUX) (FSE: 20B) (OTC Pink: BMKDF) ("BioMark") announced today that its affiliated company, Bio-Stream Diagnostics Inc., will be working with University of Qatar's Dr. Somaya Al-Maadeed in the development of its novel COVID-19-detection method, leveraging new generation Raman spectroscopy and the power of machine learning. Raman spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique typically used to determine vibrational modes of molecules, although rotational and other low-frequency modes of systems may also be observed. Raman spectroscopy is commonly used in chemistry to provide a structural fingerprint by which molecules can be identified.

Professor Al- Maadeed heads the Computer Science and Engineering Department at Qatar University with research interests in Pattern Recognition, Image and Signal Processing, AI, Bio-Metrics, Character Recognition, Writer Identification, and Digital Library. Prof Al-Maadeed is a recent recipient of a grant from Qatar University's Predicting Risk Early in COVID-19 -The PERIL Study which fits very well with Bio- Stream's research and future commercialization objectives.

"We are delighted to have Professor Al- Maadeed and her dedicated group from Qatar University to be part of our research team with a special focus on the use of ML in rapid COVID -19 diagnosis," said Mr. Rashid A. Bux, President & CEO of BioMark Diagnostics, Inc. "The additional ML resources and talent that both Professor Al-Maadeed and Qatar University provide will complement our already strong ML group. This collaboration demonstrates our global intent to partner with leading institutions and organizations that are seeking ways to bringing in rapid, effective and economical COVID -19 screening solutions to market."
