FenoLogica Biosciences, a life sciences company based in Seattle, Washington, US, has signed a licensing and collaboration agreement with Pacific Northwest Research Institute (PNRI), a biomedical research institute also based in Seattle.

Pursuant to the agreement, FenoLogica will collaborate with PNRI’s scientists to develop and commercialise a biology platform, which will be formed by combining novel quantitative biology measurement techniques with cloud-based analytical tools.

The platform, which is applicable to a variety of high-content microbiology environments, will provide researchers with insights about the causes of disease and helps them in accelerating the discovery of new treatment options. The first platform is expected to be released in early-2018.

"The companies have signed a product license arrangement, pursuant to which they will develop a hypospray-delivered proprietary solution that would cease the progression of Alzheimer's."

Molecular diagnostic solutions provider, CareDx, has announced public offering of 2.25m of its common stock shares, at a price of $4 each. The company has also announced a 30-day option to the underwriters to buy up to an additional 15% of the common stock shares.

The gross proceeds will be used partly to fund the development of CareDX’s proprietary donor-derived cell-free DNA detection test, named Allosure, and partly for other clinical trial and product commercialisation purposes, corporate and working capital purposes, and for acquisitions and investments.
