Washington University in St. Louis plays a crucial role in the mapping of the first human genome.
Washington University creates CAP/CLIA lab for NGS testing. The Genetics and Molecular Pathology departments collaborate to develop Clinical Genomics Workspace (CGW), groundbreaking software for clinical genomics.
Washington University performs a technology transfer after 50+ labs visit to learn how to operationalize clinical NGS testing. Key team members form PierianDx.
After two releases of CGW that offer multi-tenant and exome sequencing support, PierianDx closes Series A funding (14.2 million).
Today, PierianDx has 40+ customers supported by nearly 70 medical, scientific, and technical experts.
“Working with PierianDx has been an ideal partnership. They have been with us since the early onset of our program, providing both the technology and services that allowed us to ramp our program much faster.”
- Anthony Magliocco, MD - Chair, Anatomic Pathology, Moffitt Cancer Center
"I knew that with the resources we had, there was no way to create something that would rival a system like the CGW. As we've set up reflex testing in various cancer types, we have been well supported to scale the massive undertaking..."
- Nikoletta Sidiropoulos, MD - Medical Director, University of Vermont Medical Center
“There's going to be a bottleneck in the professional component as well sometimes. PierianDx allowed us to widen that bottleneck and to have more uniformity of reporting.”
- Eric Loo, MD - Asst. Professor, Pathology and Lab Medicine, Dartmouth-Hitchcock
“We chose PierianDx because their technology combined with expert scientific and clinical services will help accelerate TriCore’s ability to expand our NGS test offerings and provide enhanced clinically actionable information.”
- Eric Carbonneau - Director Core Laboratory Operations, TriCore Reference Laboratories
“A new partnership with PierianDx expands our reporting to include current clinical trials and up-to- the-minute treatment options, all linked to NorthShore’s Electronic Medical Record.”
