Picomole Receives AHFMR Support

It's my great pleasure to announce that Picomole Instruments has received support from the Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research (AHFMR) ForeFront Innovation program. Picomole was awarded a grant of $35,000 for our Phase I proposal entitled "LifeSens, a Clinical Diagnostic Instrument for Breath Analysis." Here's a brief excerpt from the AHFMR award letter:

"The Committee noted the innovative approach for using a combination of infrared gas analysis and cavity ring-down spectroscopy and commented on the potential for the proposed technology to set new standards for non-invasive diagnosis of certain disease conditions."

The Phase I AHFMR award will be used to purchase equipment needed for the laboratory prototype of LifeSens.
