SOUTH PLAINFIELD, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Admera Health, a precision-medicine company and genetics laboratory, announced today that it has engaged Back Bay Life Science Advisors, a strategic advisory and investment banking firm, to explore strategic alternatives for its pharmacogenomics and clinical services business as part of a company-wide strategic review. Admera offers the most comprehensive clinical PGx test in the industry, covering 62 genes, over 270 medications, and over 20 therapeutic areas, including: psychiatry, cardiology, pain management, and oncology. Admera Health’s clinical services portfolio is built on a strong foundation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and data analysis capabilities.
