History

Fluofarma was spun out of the prestigious European Institute of Chemistry and Biology (IECB) in Bordeaux, France, by a team of scientists with in-depth, wide-ranging expertise in oncology, neurobiology and chemistry. In the last couple of years, sales of Fluofarma's services have grown by more than 400% and Fluofarma now works with over 30 companies worldwide.

Technology

Fluofarma has developed an innovative technology that improves the level of understanding of compounds and their effects, from the earliest stage of the discovery process onwards.
