Covaris, Inc.

Covaris is dedicated to accelerating discoveries in life sciences and bioanalysis by developing cutting-edge sample preparation tools. AFA-energetics® is the gold standard for shearing DNA and RNA for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and is setting new standards in FFPE-related DNA/RNA/protein extraction, cfDNA extraction, epigenomics, proteomics, cell lysis and more. Covaris Adaptive Focused Acoustics® (AFA®) technology is the only high-throughput (>96 samples) chromatin sample preparation platform available for a wide range of chromatin-based applications. Some additional applications include Methyl-Seq, Protein-DNA interaction studies, meDIP-Seq, ChIP-Seq and more.


Diagenode

At Diagenode, our goal is to build products and offer services with pride and the highest level of performance. Based in Liege, Belgium and NJ, USA, our team of epigenetics experts have developed innovative Bioruptor® shearing and unique IP-Star® automation instruments, reagent kits, and highly validated antibodies to streamline DNA methylation, and ChIP-seq workflows. The company's latest innovations include the Megaruptor shearing system for long fragment generation in sequencing and epigenetics assay services.


Resverlogix Corp.

Resverlogix is a pioneer in the landscape of epigenetic drug development. Today, apabetalone – discovered in 2006 – is the world leader in the new class of drugs designed to regulate gene expression through the inhibition of bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) proteins. Through this mechanism, we believe we can improve the lives of millions of high risk patients by restoring biological functions – altered by serious illnesses such as cardiovascular disease, renal disease and dementia – to a healthy state. The prevalence of BET proteins in the human body allows apabetalone to simultaneously target multiple disease-causing biological processes – leading an exciting new paradigm shift in the treatment of chronic disease. Resverlogix is please to update the epigenetic research community on its progress to date.
