About SeromYx
SeromYx Systems is a biotechnology service company that provides clients and partners with unprecedented insight into the functional antibody response, based on the Systems Serology platform developed at the Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT and Harvard. Starting operations at the end of 2019, in our first 20 months, we doubled in size, driven by client demand in both vaccines and monoclonal therapeutics, and targets ranging from blockbuster indications to neglected tropical diseases (NTD), with significant contributions to the fight against SARS-COV-2.
Looking forward, we expect a further doubling of our activity as we support the discovery and development of second-generation coronavirus vaccines, as other client projects move into BLA-enabling studies, as we expand our NTD business and as we grow into new therapeutic areas such as autoimmunity, neurodegeneration, and oncology. As a further consequence of our success, we have outgrown our space in Cambridge and moved into new build custom labs in Woburn, MA in May, 2022.
