Welcome to Etaluma!
Etaluma Inc. is a privately held Life Sciences company focused on bringing analytical and diagnostic instrumentation to a greater spectrum of users by decreasing the cost and complexity of these devices and encouraging the open-source development of applications for their use.
The primary goal and challenge for Etaluma's diverse team of scientists and engineers is to implement these powerful core technologies in cost-effective formats, thereby extending their availability beyond well-funded laboratories. Moreover, Etaluma is actively looking to provide hardware to reagent and kit manufacturers who want to expand their market into the economics of smaller labs, individual researchers, and third-world settings.
By leveraging Etaluma's in-house optical and software development expertise, a series of calibration and validation tools will be introduced to assist the user in critically evaluating the merit and performance of both Etaluma devices and more conventional instrumentation.
...such a device will dramatically alter the equation for who uses fluorescence microscopy and how...it just opens up a whole new set of potential users, who will think of 1000 ways to use it that you, the developer, never dreamed of.
