ReadCoor is leading the next generation of `omics` by delivering the first panomic spatial sequencing platform to the global audience of researchers, clinicians, pharma and diagnostics companies, and ultimately patients. It is accomplishing this with a fundamental new technology called FISSEQ which simultaneously enables integration of high throughput sequencing, morphometric analysis, cellular location and three dimensional spatial imaging. This uniquely powerful tool is the first and only implementation of `In-situ Sequencing` and will revolutionize the next phase in understanding the transcriptome, introducing vast new opportunities for important and meaningful clinical insight. ReadCoor will fulfill the mission with a comprehensive set of high quality services, systems and actionable information provided to research and healthcare communities worldwide. Current transcriptomic tools are cumbersome, inadequate and cannot preserve the rich panomic information contained in cellular structures. ReadCoor combines both next generation sequencing and morphometric information for the first time in a new generation sequencing platform that enables researchers to perform high throughput RNA sequencing without dissociating cells, thus preserving important cellular structures, pinpointing transcripts to individual cells in 3D, and delivering high fidelity spatial image data.
Visterra is a biotechnology company that uses its proprietary Hierotope™ Platform to identify unique disease targets and design and engineer effective therapeutics. The company`s technology is powered by computational tools and techniques, the core of which is Atomic Interaction Network (AIN) analysis, which uniquely identifies an area, or epitope, on the target site that is fundamental to its structure and function. This ideal epitope, or hierotope, becomes the target against which the company designs a novel therapeutic to effectively and durably combat the disease. The company`s lead product candidate, VIS410, is a broad spectrum human monoclonal antibody for the treatment of both seasonal and pandemic influenza, is in a phase 2a clinical trial and expected to enter a phase 2b clinical trial by year end 2017. The company`s second product candidate, VIS649, is a monoclonal antibody engineered to treat IgA nephropathy, a rare chronic kidney disease. In addition, Visterra has established a number of partnerships to progress novel antibodies engineered to treat significant diseases with limited treatment options.
