Rory Cellan-Jones, BBC News Technology Correspondent, has officially opened Phase III of the DiagnOx Laboratory, a unique incubator facility located in Cherwell Innovation Centre, Oxfordshire. The Phase III development doubles the existing space to 3,000 sq ft, includes a Category 2 microbiology laboratory and allows more innovative diagnostics companies to undertake research there. DiagnOx provides offices and shared laboratory and equipment facilities where diagnostics researchers, or companies developing medical diagnostic products, can undertake prototyping and proof of concept work. This expansion was made possible by a grant from the South East England Development Agency (SEEDA).
