Anzu portfolio company CytoTronics won a Novel Product Award for its Pixel system at the 2024 MSD Tech Symposium. The Pixel system enables high-resolution, multiplexed, real-time assessment of live-cell characteristics, providing deeper understanding of how chemical or genetic perturbation affect cell function and has the potential to transform cell biology discovery. Congratulations to the CytoTronics team on this accomplishment! #cellbiology #drugdiscovery #biotech
