IAB will distribute Congenica’s CE Marked IVD clinical decision support software platform across Europe to both public and private healthcare and research partners. Delivering expertise in Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and informatic solutions, IAB provides complete NGS services using the most up-to-date and state-of-the-art technologies.
IAB understands that providing complete genomic services requires sophisticated informatics analytical procedures able to process large amounts of genomic data for accurate and consistent interpretation of NGS results. Congenica’s leading technology platform enables the rapid analysis and interpretation of complex genomic data, allowing the delivery of personalised medicine at scale.
Willem Haagmans, VP Sales EMEA, said: “We’re delighted to be working with IAB to help strengthen our presence in Central Europe as part of our fast-moving global expansion plans. The team offer great knowledge and an excellent network and are well positioned to help rollout our leading genomic analysis platform in this important region.”
Petr Kvapil, CEO said: “We searched for a user-friendly and reliable NGS data analysis and interpretation suite that could be used daily in diagnostic labs without the need for an army of trained bioinformaticians. Genetic diagnostics based on exome/genome sequencing is evolving rapidly, but a bottleneck is the effective and rapid analysis of the enormous datasets produced by NGS. Congenica is the perfect solution for these challenges, and we are very excited about the future product developments they have planned. We’re very pleased to be offering Congenica’s clinical interpretation and management software – it’s the cherry on the top of the cake in our NGS portfolio.”
