Abouts Us
Individually, you are special | Together, we will be spectacular || Let us resonate together |||
At Anunaad Biologics, we resonate with the promise of innovation in life sciences. True to our name—”Anunaad,” meaning “echo”—we aim to create transformative impacts that reverberate across healthcare and biotechnology. Founded and driven by a team of leading researchers from IIT Bombay, we bring cutting-edge science and expertise to solve complex challenges in biopharmaceuticals and beyond.
Although our regular range of services includes higher-order-structure (HOS) characterization, bio-similarity assay, aggregation monitoring, and impurity analysis of biomolecules, we aim to be more than a mere protein characterization facility. Like you, we are passionate about bringing new, safe, and effective therapies to people who need them. Hence, in addition to promptly providing quality data analysis support, we will remain by your side and assist you in every possible way until the regulatory authorities approve your drug for the market.
You should see us as a one-stop solution for all your needs.
Let us Resonate Together !!
