CIRCULOGENE Announces Lab Expansion in Florida

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CIRCULOGENE Announces Lab Expansion in Florida

Liquid Biopsy Company Laboratory Operations Are Growing in Pensacola 

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. and Pensacola, Fla. (October 14, 2021) – CIRCULOGENE, an innovative medical technology company transforming precision medicine through the rapid delivery of actionable results, and the only company in the world with a liquid biopsy that provides prediction of immunotherapy response with its PDL1 biomarker test, today announced the expansion into Pensacola, Florida.

“CIRCULOGENE has been operating its high-throughput lab in Birmingham, Alabama, for the past six years, but with more oncologists sending in blood for molecular profiling, it made sense to not only expand our footprint, but do so in the state of Florida where we can be closer to one of our largest growing markets,” said Mike Mullen, President and CEO of CIRCULOGENE. “We now have grown our testing capacity and are engineering the lab to get results back to the oncologists in a matter of days, which allows treatment decisions to happen faster for their patients.”

“We are excited to see a cutting-edge company like CIRCULOGENE expand their operations right here in Pensacola,” Pensacola Mayor Grover Robinson said. “With several strong laboratory sciences programs in our area, I’m confident that CIRCULOGENE will find exceptional talent for their workforce as they continue to grow.”
