We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded funding from the European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator program! This significant milestone reflects the trust and support of the EIC and the SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA) in our vision and our dedicated team.
At METAFORA, we are deeply committed to driving innovation that contributes to a robust healthcare access and improved pathways across Europe. Our mission is to leverage advanced technology to create solutions that truly make a difference in people’s lives.
Our flagship product in development, METAflow, aims to become a groundbreaking research software designed for multidimensional cytometry data analysis.
It has already made a substantial impact at prestigious cytometry congresses, including CYTO and ESCCA. Researchers and professionals in the field have recognized the potential of METAflow to transform data interpretation and enhance the quality of research in immunology and hemato-oncology.
With the EIC Accelerator funding, we are also poised to transition METAflow from a research-focused tool to a clinical-grade platform. This advancement will enable us to support a series of diagnostic tests that are crucial for the fields of immunology and hemato-oncology.
By bridging the gap between research and clinical application, we aim to provide valuable insights that can lead to better patient outcomes.
