Biotechnology company in the UK. No evidence of affiliation usage or research outputs I can find, nor were any provided in the request. Recommend Hold for Later until these can be demonstrated.

Couldn't find any evidence of affiliation use. Publications authored by their Chief Technology Officer and Chief Scientific Officer were authored prior to this company's existence.

They run a platform called CellRepo which could be considered as research infrastructure. But it's still in Beta, and there hasn't been a lot of usage.

Agree with Hold for Later.
