A PROPOSITO DE MICROPATHOLOGY LTD.
Histórico:
Micropathology Ltd fue creada en Febrero 1995 por
los Doctores David Burnett y Colin Fink como una
compañía independiente especializada en los estudios de
las enfermedades contagiosas y estudios las reacciones del cuerpo
humano a las infecciones. Estas investigaciones necesitaron el
desarrollo de métodos de diagnósticos eficaces que se
pueden utilizar tanto por las enfermedades humanas como por los
animales. La empresa se trasladó en Mayo 1999 a otro local en
el parque científico de la Universidad de Warwick donde
laboratorios y oficinas más grandes fueron concedidas. La
nueva asociación entre nuestra empresa y los compañeros
de la Universidad fomentó numerosos proyectos de
investigación. Nuestra compañía desarolló
una colaboración dinámica entre los intereses
comerciales y académicos.
