How it Works
Tell Us Your Biospecimen Needs
Use our online form, email us, or call us with your sample requirements. One of our project managers will reply within one business day to confirm the request details.
We Find the Biospecimens
We contact our network of pre-approved providers to find the biospecimens, negotiate prices and timelines, and then we propose the options to you.
We Order the Biospecimens
If you choose to move forward, we order the samples from the selected provider(s), and manage the sample collection and processing.
Biospecimens are Shipped to You
When the samples are ready, we arrange the shipment directly from the provider to your lab, and we confirm that the samples meet the agreed requirements.
