Medicover and FYR Diagnostics (FYR) are proud to announce a new partnership focused on diagnostic test development and Precision Medicine. Through their combined expertise, the collaboration will support pharmaceutical companies with clinical trial assay development and implementation, co-development of novel diagnostic technologies, and companion diagnostic testing services.
