Rokit Genomics Partners with Bionexus to Commercialize AI-Based Single-Cell Analysis
Building an Automated Single-Cell Transcriptome Analysis Model
Identifying Candidate Biomarkers Using AI
Rokit Genomics, a subsidiary of Rokit Healthcare, announced on May 19 that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Bionexus to jointly develop and commercialize an artificial intelligence (AI)-based single-cell transcriptome analysis service.
The core objective of this agreement is to build an automated single-cell transcriptome analysis model by combining Rokit Genomics' capabilities in single-cell analysis with Bionexus' AI-driven bio big data technology.
The two companies will work together on developing single-cell transcriptome linkage services using AI-based bio big data, facilitating technology exchanges for the development of AI-driven experimental and analytical services, jointly developing medical information collection and analysis technologies, and cooperating on healthcare commercialization initiatives.
This collaboration model is structured so that disease-related research hypotheses and candidate biomarkers are identified from single-cell transcriptome data using AI, and these are then linked for laboratory validation.
Rokit Genomics is responsible for operating the single-cell analysis pipeline, validating candidate biomarkers, establishing protocols, and interpreting results. Bionexus will handle AI-driven hypothesis generation and the development of automated analysis and reporting systems.
