Even if you’ve been through the process, you may not be aware of exactly what goes into M&A deals. Today, we’ve tried to look into that in a little more detail with Transaction Liability Team Leader Grant Hollis from CFC Underwriting,
When we talk about genomics hubs, then usually we’d be talking about Oxbridge, Boston or Silicon Valley thanks to success stories like 10x Genomics, Illumina or Solexa. However, as the technology needed to conduct genomic R&D becomes more accessible
Coronavirus has provided us with a very large and extremely recent data set for research, patient populations and how different ethnic minorities are being affected versus the research. And the early indicators are that those from minority background
One of the biggest partnering events in the life science calendar Bio-Europe Spring, was scheduled to take place in Paris from March 23 – 27 this year. That all changed with the emergence of COVID-19...
To achieve the WHO's ambitious aim that no woman should die of cervical cancer by 2030 it will take a huge, global effort from companies around the world. Luckily, there is a global community of life sciences companies to help achieve that aim.

There are countless benefits to companion diagnostics including better evidence of clinical utility & greater patient access, more efficient use of resources, better safety and economic advantages for drug companies.
In today's hyper-connected world, what's the point of conferences? Our Associate Director Jack Shute asked experts from across the speciality chemical space and some of his CM Life Science colleagues to find out.
Product launches and many fascinating, innovative approaches to diagnostics meant that the 71st meeting of the American Association for Clinical Chemistry did not disappoint.
It’s hard to estimate the total size and value of the diagnostics market, however by looking at some of the forecasts available, the scale of the industry is evident.
Cancer doesn’t always make itself known when it presents itself inside a person. People can live with the disease for a long time and, when symptoms manifest, it can be too late as the cancer has become advanced or has spread.
Like the disease itself, cancer treatment and diagnostics comes in many forms. And this number is only increasing as we learn more about the anatomy of the disease and the different ways in which it can be identified.
In 1971 then-US President Richard Nixon famously declared war on drugs, naming drug abuse ‘public enemy number one’. That war’s now been raging for more than 45 years at an estimated cost of over $1 trillion USD.
