Following the acquisition by Prenetics of Oxsed, an Oxford University spin-out company from October 2020, the aim has been to establish a scientific and long-term collaboration to advance molecular diagnostic testing for global unmet needs. A new Prenetics Innovation Technology Centre (ITC) for Advanced Molecular Diagnostics has been established, which will be based in OSCAR, Oxford University’s first overseas centre for research in physical and engineering sciences, located in China’s Jiangsu Province.
