With over 20 years of legacy in assay development, immunogenicity and efficacy predictive in vitro and in vivo models, PAIRimmune’s CEO Danielle Poirier and her team have a solid reputation for outstanding science within the community. Since 2015, they have been a CRO partner to small Biotech, academic groups and the most prestigious vaccine and large molecule Pharma companies.
“As a science-driven organization, nothing makes us happier than seeing talented scientists joining forces with us. This acquisition strengthens our ligand binding and neutralization assays R&D capabilities, and this is a determinant growth engine for each of our biomarkers, bioanalytical and vaccine divisions. PAIRimmune also increases our capacity and capabilities in flow cytometry and places us in a situation to answer positively to requests with either an in vivo, ex-vivo or immunohistology component. A perfect match!” said Dr Benoit Bouche, NLPBI President and Chief Executive Officer.
This acquisition reinforces NLPBI’s ability to serve the needs of the health industry from the preclinical stage where it is critical to develop robust data needed to make informed go/no-go decisions.
“The exponential growth of NLPBI these last years is impressive and proves the need for the emergence of a world class immunology specialist CRO. We are thrilled to become part of this story. Many of our employees are former GSK colleagues and old friends. Working in the same building in Laval gives us the feeling that we are already part of the family. Our clients will get access from day one to state-of-the-art labs and synergistic expertise that will result in an improved quality of service.”, said Danielle Poirier, President of PAIRimmune.
PAIRimmune will pursue its operations under the leadership of Danielle Poirier, Director of Preclinical Services and Matthieu Daugan, Associate Director of Preclinical Services.
PAIRimmune will be rebranded this fall at the same time as NEOMED-LABS and Pacific Biomarkers under a new corporate identity currently in development.
