Contract Research Services

Nexus Medical Labs provides contract research services for teams bringing diagnostics into the real world - whether that means validating a novel assay, converting a lab-based test to self-collection, or supporting a multi-site trial. We offer CLIA and CAP-accredited lab infrastructure built for scale, speed, and scientific rigor.

COMMERCIALIZATION

One lab partner. Two paths to innovation.

Nexus provides contract research services for both public sector researchers and commercial health innovators.

We support IRB-backed clinical trials, prevalence studies, and federal surveillance programs.

We also help diagnostic builders convert traditional tests into scalable, self-collected formats like dried blood spot or multi-site swabs.

Whether you’re validating a new assay or optimizing an at-home test for launch, Nexus is your high-throughput, compliance-ready lab partner.
