Our take

Traditional methods of processing complex next-generation sequencing (NGS) microfluidics are expensive and require lengthy set up times to automate protocols. Miroculus’s Miro Canvas is a compact, easy-to-use digital microfluidics platform that enables on-demand automation of complex NGS sample preparation protocols.

With the company’s platform, users can simplify, automate, and scale down complex NGS library prep, improving consistency and eliminating the need for robotics. The scalable platform allows labs like Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine to rapidly process whole genome sequencing for critically ill infants, leading to better health outcomes and lower medical costs.

The company has partnered with Element Biosciences, integrating its AVITI platform and applications with Miro Canvas, boosting the efficiencies of both platforms to further increase NGS access and choice. With funding from lead investor, Cota Capital, Miroculus is working to expand its partnerships and commercial teams.
