美国Station X
生物信息学公司
Station X develops software products for scientists and clinicians who work with large-scale human genome information in either a research or clinical setting, enabling them to extract maximal biological meaning from complex genomic data.
Our first product, GenePool for Biomarker Discovery, has been designed in conjunction with a leading molecular diagnostics company. Building on our core GenePool technology, we are also creating validated software applications that will support clinical trials and the interpretation of comprehensive genetic test panels.
We also offer partnerships with translational and clinical research organizations seeking to integrate NGS genomic data into their routine workflows.
About the name
In World War II, Station X was the code name for Bletchley Park, the Allies' top-secret center for deciphering enemy codes. It was at Station X that Alan Turing (who many consider the father of computer science) and his team cracked the Enigma code. Recruitment at Bletchley Park was also groundbreaking in its diversity - the cryptanalysts included linguists, chess champions, crossword experts, polyglots and mathematicians, selected from all sectors of society. We named our company Station X because we believe that cracking the genetic code will also need a combination of computational power and smart people with diverse skills and backgrounds.
