“Beckman Coulter Genomics is proud to achieve accreditation from the College of American Pathologists,” said Tim Anderson, vice president and general manager of genomic services. “CAP accreditation is recognized as the ‘high-water mark’ for laboratory testing. I congratulate the entire team at Beckman Coulter Genomics. This accomplishment underscores our commitment to advancing healthcare for every person and reinforces our determination to deliver the highest standards of excellence.”
Award of this respected accreditation strengthens Beckman Coulter Genomics’ already strong bioinformatics expertise and extensive experience in study design, guidance and analysis of customer’s crucial clinical samples.
“CAP accreditation signifies that our lab operates under rigorous quality standards to generate highly accurate and reliable data,” said Dr. Stephen Lyle, laboratory director at Beckman Coulter Genomics. “We are pleased to be able to provide our customers a sequencing service which satisfies the exacting requirements of regulatory authorities and will help the facility more quickly move findings from clinical trials into clinical use."
