The financing accelerates exceptional momentum for Lucid, and for their upcoming launch of new Resipher hardware and consumable products this fall. Resipher provides researchers with valuable insights into cellular metabolism that are of central importance for a wide range of therapeutic applications and drug safety considerations. Resipher converts standard cell culture plates into smart readers that detect and report metabolic changes in real-time. This data significantly accelerates the cell culture research cycle by bridging the gap between performing experiments and gaining actionable insight.

“This financing enables Lucid to continue improving the Resipher line of products for researchers and drug discovery teams whose work directly impacts human health,” said Dr. Walker Inman, CEO of Lucid Scientific. “We are excited to have Ehsan and IAG join our team, as they provide a wealth of experience and help position Lucid to achieve our goals.”
