About
Vala Sciences Inc. is a fast-growing San Diego-based biotechnology company that develops and sells cell-based analysis and imaging software and reagents to scientists in academia and pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Vala Sciences has developed intellectual property that enables information-rich, high throughput measurements for making fundamentally new insights into cell function. Vala Sciences software and assay technology can be applied to images acquired on any microscope or cell-based imaging system. The number one hurdle to adoption of cell-image-based measurement automation by biological and pharmaceutical scientists is the complexity of designing and running assays on these new instruments. Vala Sciences solves this important challenge by teaming with the scientists to develop the software and measurement techniques for their biology. Vala Sciences' combined software-and-reagent assays convert labor-intensive qualitative observations of biological changes that can take from days to months, into accurate measurements delivered automatically in minutes. The Vala Sciences executive and engineering team previously founded Q3DM, a San Diego-based company that developed the EIDAQ/IC-100 high throughput microscopy instrumentation and the CytoShop® software. Q3DM sold the technology to Beckman Coulter in December 2003 for manufacturing and worldwide distribution. Vala Sciences is developing relationships with multiple instrument companies that will simplify seamless operation of its biological and software tools and is actively collaborating with scientists to combine novel biological tools with fast, precise analytical software.
