About Life & Brain GmbH
Closing the gap between university research and business – this is the rationale behind the biomedical and neuroscientific technology platform LIFE & BRAIN. In academia, translational developments frequently get stuck at an early stage because insufficient know-how and lack of financial resources prevent the development of a proof of concept required for further downstream commercialization and market entry.
As a Bonn-based company specializing in translational university medicine, LIFE & BRAIN acts as a 'revolving door' between academic research and industry. Innovative research findings are recognized early and developed further into marketable biomedical products and services.
Our expertise in the fields of genome research, stem cell technology, transgenic modelling and neurocognition creates the perfect environment for designing future-oriented services and products for disease-related research and the development of novel therapies.
LIFE & BRAIN Genomics is a leading European genomics service provider. We are specialized on Illumina (SNP genotyping and methylation analysis) array technology as well as PacBio single-molecule long-read sequencing. LIFE & BRAIN offers the complete workflow from Logistics and nucleic acid extraction down to bioinformatic analysis from a single source. With a strong scientific background in research on genetically complex disorders and an intense link to the Institute of Human Genetics, Life & Brain also offers complete project management for genomic projects.
