TissueVision is based in Cambridge MA and was founded by researchers in the Biological and Mechanical Engineering Departments at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The Company has been awarded multiple SBIR awards from the NIH to develop innovative tissue imaging and spectroscopy. Its core technology has been patented and additional patents are pending. TissueVision’s mission is to be the leader in high content tissue knowledge.
The technology that the company was founded upon has been featured in several publications:
