GeneDx, the leader in rare disease diagnosis and improving health through the power of genomic data, has appointed Mark Gardner as President.

Reporting to Katherine Stueland, Chief Executive Officer, Gardner will lead GeneDx’s commercial and operations teams, with a focus on strengthening execution, scaling efficiently and expanding the company’s leadership in genomic medicine.

“GeneDx has built a powerful foundation and is entering a stage where execution at scale matters more than ever,” said Stueland. “Mark brings nearly three decades of experience leading diagnostics, genomics, life sciences and healthcare technology businesses, including at some of the most complex commercial organizations in our industry. His leadership will be immediately valuable as we sharpen our commercial and operational focus.”

Experience

Gardner most recently served as Senior Vice President of Molecular Genomics and Oncology at Quest Diagnostics, where he led a large-scale oncology and genomics business and helped drive growth across precision medicine, rare disease and advanced diagnostic testing. Previously, he served as Chief Executive Officer of OmniSeq, a precision medicine company acquired by Labcorp, and held senior leadership roles at Thermo Fisher Scientific and Life Technologies, where he led global genomics, sequencing and life sciences businesses.

Gardner began his leadership career in the United States Navy, where he served as a P-3 Orion pilot and rose to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. He holds an MBA from The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, a master’s degree in National Security Studies from Georgetown University, and a bachelor’s degree in history from the United States Naval Academy.

“GeneDx is uniquely positioned to help change how genetic disease is diagnosed and establish a new standard of care,” said Gardner. “I’m excited to join the team and help strengthen the commercial and operational capabilities needed to scale efficiently, execute with discipline and extend GeneDx’s leadership over the long term.”
