Breck Parker

Dr. Breck Parker came to EnviroLogix in 2010, where he is expanding Immunoassay technology and developing systems for the diagnostic detection of DNA and RNA targets. Breck came to EnviroLogix with nearly 25 years of experience in biotechnology. Breck began his career as a Senior Scientist with Hybridon Diagnostics and focused on the development of novel molecular diagnostics for the detection of HIV, HCV, HPV and a variety of related infectious pathogens. He excels at finding the right pieces to the puzzle and building the right team for the right job.

His distinguished education includes a BS in Biochemistry from University of Massachusetts (graduated cum laude) and a PhD in Molecular Pharmacology from the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. A former medic, Breck worked in some of the first Advanced Life Support ambulances in western MA while in college and originally planned on being a physician. However, his graduate advisor convinced him that his talents and passion would be best utilized in a research environment, and Breck has never regretted that decision.
