Cooperation with R-Biopharm

Since September 2015 the Darmstadt-based diagnostic company R-Biopharm is a new partner of InfectoGnostics Research Campus. The medium-sized company is the first InfectoGnostics partner outside of Thuringia.

The aim of the partnership is a close cooperation in the fields of clinical diagnostics and water analytics. Furthermore R-Biopharm is contributing its marketing expertise into the public-private partnership.

„We want to strengthen the transfer from research results to marketable products“, says Dr. Frank Apostel, division manager Companion Diagnostics at R-Biopharm. „The innovation oriented campus structure of InfectoGnotics and the existing network of technology, application and production are ideal conditions for us.“

Professor Jürgen Popp, managing board spokesman of InfectoGnostics adds: „R-Biopharm is well known as a reliable project partner and we are looking forward to working with them on diagnostic solutions within the research campus.”
