December 2013—The Centre of Excellence for the Prevention of Organ Failure (PROOF Centre) and HTG Molecular Diagnostics are collaborating to begin clinical validation of a biomarker blood test that will provide early indication of organ rejection in heart transplant patients and thereby allow doctors to better monitor and treat patients post-transplant. It is the first clinical validation study of this kind in Canada.
December 2013—Torrey Pines Scientific’s new EchoTherm stackable, programmable chilling incubators have a 27-L capacity and are Peltier based for heating and chilling.
