    1. Despite exceeding revenue expectations in Q3 by $6 million, why didn't you raise the upper end of your MRD revenue guidance, and what factors are limiting your confidence in achieving higher revenues?

    2. Given the anticipated 56% decrease in Genentech upfront amortization contributing to a 32% decline in Immune Medicine revenue, how do you plan to offset this decline and address the potential impact on your Immune Medicine segment?

    3. With challenges in the pharma business due to quarter-to-quarter volatility and potential softness from external factors like hurricanes, how confident are you in your MRD pharma revenue projections, and what strategies are you implementing to mitigate these risks?

    4. Considering the recent decision by UnitedHealth to no longer cover certain genetic tests, how might payer concerns about spiraling costs impact your ability to secure reimbursement at higher rates for clonoSEQ, and what steps are you taking to address these potential challenges?

    5. Given that guidelines for mantle cell lymphoma are not yet defined and MRD testing is not standard practice in this indication, how do you plan to drive adoption of clonoSEQ in MCL, and what are the risks if clinical uptake is slower than expected?
