BioSURE is a UK company specializing in the provision of rapid in-vitro diagnostic testing solutions. The BioSURE COVID-19 Self-Test will be an at-home antibody test that will use technology similar to that of a pregnancy test. The lateral flow chromatography assay test will detect the presence of IgG antibodies to the COVID-19 virus, not COVID-19 itself. The BioSURE COVID-19 Self-Test will be as easy as 3 simple steps. Prick, Suck and Poke. The finger-prick blood sample will provide results in 11 minutes. [mepr-show rules=”18700″ unauth=”message”] The BioSURE COVID-19 Self-Test was developed in partnership with Mologic, a leading developer of lateral flow and rapid diagnostic technologies,…

Regulatory landscape. Including a detailed flow chart analyzing zing the complexity of approval process in the EU, China and South Korea. Also included was the commercialization landscape and the reimbursement analysis for France, Germany, UK, Spain and…
The Thesis: A tremendous wealth of innovative science is occurring at Universities and among individual scientists and inventors. If such innovation could be matched with other groups working on similar problems and projects, great advances and even breakthroughs could be accelerated. Furthermore if such breakthroughs could be matched with commercialization strategies, solutions to complex challenges like pandemics and climate change could be found. But today no such collaborative model exists broadly. Scientists do collaborate but only through their own initiatives and our institutions are not designed to reward such collaboration. In fact, the incentive systems currently in place discourage it.…
Extensive Study in the UK involving 1,700 patients showed consistent benefits from steroid treatment. A new analysis of several studies in the UK which steroid drugs were used to determine effectiveness for treating COVID-19 found that they significantly reduced patient deaths, bolstering early, preliminary evidence for the benefit of these medications. Key Findings: In numerous studies 1700 participants received corticosteroids an anti-inflammatory drug that can damp the effects of an overactive Immune System. The results showed a reduction in the death rate by almost one third, compared with patients who did not receive the treatment. Scientists and physicians convened by…
