HistoryBrief history of CXR Biosciences CXR Biosciences was founded in Jan 2002 by Prof Roland Wolf and Dr Cliff Elcombe as a spin out from The Biomedical Research Centre, University of Dundee Medical School. Over the past 5 years, CXR has had two rounds of private investment and now employs 36 staff recruited from both industrial and academic backgrounds, over 50% of whom have PhD's. The combination of academic excellence together with extensive industrial experience in drug metabolism and toxicology provides unique insights into new approaches for preclinical drug development. In addition to developing innovative technologies to improve drug discovery & development, CXR's innovative approach has also been successfully applied to assist companies with ADMET characterisation, lead compound selection, investigative toxicology, product rescue, and product advocacy.
