History edit
NeoGenomics first received state and national-level laboratory certifications in 2002. Three years later in 2005, the company developed a technical-only service model using FISH.
In 2013, the company launched its sequencing platform[3] and was listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market as NEO. In 2014, NeoGenomics launched molecular tests including BTK and CALR mutation analysis.[4][5]
In 2015, NeoGenomics acquired Clarient, Inc. and its subsidiary company, Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. , a national cancer diagnostics laboratory with capabilities in immunohistochemistry for solid tumor cancers from GE Healthcare.[6][7] Clarient is headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California; with an ancillary laboratory in Houston, Texas.[8]
In November 2017, NeoGenomics established their first headquarters outside the United States in Rolle, Switzerland.[9]
