Proteros Obtains CIR Accreditation

Proteros biostructures GmbH has announced that it has been awarded CIR accreditation by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research.

The accreditation allows eligible French companies to benefit from significant tax relief (Crédit d'Impôt sur la Recherche) on research carried out by Proteros on their behalf until 2013.

“We are very pleased that our French clients will be able to benefit from the CIR accreditation and the opportunity to receive 30% of their R&D costs in tax credits” said Gordon Woodrow, EVP Strategic Alliances.

Woodrow continued, “Proteros’ clients can access services that range from protein crystallography, kinetic/thermodynamic profiling and custom proteins to fully integrated structure-based lead discovery including proprietary protein-inspired fragment libraries and medicinal chemistry.”
