Deep scientific expertise

Our scientists bring deep expertise across transcriptomics, PCR, proteomics and data analysis. While other CROs help to run your assays, we help design the right approach, troubleshoot complex projects and turn biological data into meaningful answers.

Technology choices you can trust

We continuously evaluate new platforms through internal R&D and real-world validation. We adopt technologies only when they clearly improve data quality, robustness, or interpretability. When commercial options fall short, we build and validate proprietary assays and workflows.

collaborate iconDiscovery connected to validation

Move from discovering biological signals to understanding and validating what matters, all within one scientific organization. Our combined capabilities create greater continuity between early discovery, data analysis, biomarker and target validation, and clinical applications.

How we support your research

Expertise across therapeutic areas

Immuno-oncology & Oncology

Resolve tumor and immune heterogeneity at single-cell and spatial resolution to identify treatment-responsive and resistant cell states, characterize the tumor microenvironment, and uncover clinically relevant biomarkers. Connect these discoveries with TCR profiling, proteomics and targeted molecular assays to validate and track the signals that matter.

Cell & Gene Therapy

Characterize therapeutic cell populations beyond surface markers and understand how cell state, identity, and function change throughout development. Progress drug targets with biodistribution, shedding assays, vector copy number, and transgene expression using sensitive, GLP-compliant qPCR/dPCR assays suitable for preclinical and clinical development.

CNS & Neurological Disorders

Dissect complex neural tissues and models at cellular and spatial resolution to reveal disease-associated neuronal and cell states that are obscured in bulk measurements. Identify molecular signatures and pathways linked to disease or treatment response and carry selected findings into targeted validation.

drug discoveryToxicology & Safety

Measure transcriptome-wide responses across hundreds to thousands of compounds, concentrations, or conditions to identify dose-responsive signatures and investigate mechanisms of toxicity. Follow promising molecular signals into targeted validation to support more informed compound and safety decisions.

Immunology & Inflammation

Resolve heterogeneous immune populations, activation states, and clonal responses to understand how immune systems change across disease, treatment, and experimental conditions. Combine gene-expression, immune-repertoire, and protein-level measurements to characterize immune responses from discovery through validation.

drug discoveryBiomarker Discovery & Clinical Research

Discover candidate biomarkers using transcriptomics and proteomics, then translate promising signals into targeted assays for larger sample cohorts and clinical studies. Our combined discovery and GLP and GCLP capabilities help bridge the gap between finding a biological signal and measuring it reproducibly in the samples that matter.
