Bio-Techne opens research center in Düsseldorf

Bio-Techne, a U.S. life sciences company, has opened a new Customer Experience Center and research laboratory in Düsseldorf. There, scientists can test technologies and coordinated workflows under real-world conditions. The center also aims to foster collaboration and accelerate the transfer of scientific findings into clinical applications through workshops, professional events and clinical training.

The purpose of the new facility on the Yorcks Campus is to advance the development of new drugs. Particular attention is being paid to systems such as "Leo" for automated protein analysis and "Comet" for spatial tissue examination, both of which are intended for use in modern cancer therapy.

The life sciences ecosystem in Düsseldorf and its proximity to the Benelux countries were decisive factors in choosing the location. Bio-Techne plans to expand its collaborations with regional universities, research institutions and biotechnology companies.
