It launched its\u00a0kits for research in Boston earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The raise was led by existing investor Archangels, with support from Old College Capital, BBI, Scottish Enterprise, and new investor\u00a0EverQuest\u00a0Capital Partners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Alan Schafer has been appointed chief technology officer, bringing more than 30 years\u2019 experience in genetics technologies and molecular diagnostics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Jeremy Wheeler, CEO, said:\u00a0\u201cOncology is an exciting and vibrant sector. The scientists and technologists have been doing incredible things based upon the samples that they\u2019re given, but there hasn\u2019t been any\u00a0particular movement\u00a0in how the samples are prepared for years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">\u201cOur\u00a0msX\u00a0platform has the potential to revolutionise how samples are collected, allowing for larger samples, faster extraction, simpler processing, and fully automatable capabilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">\u201cIn practice, that means faster,\u00a0better\u00a0and deeper iteration and research on cancer, leading to better outcomes for potentially millions of people globally.
