OUR SUCCESS

TESTIMONIALS

We have worked with the Laxai team for just over 1 year. We are very pleased with Laxai’s work product on a variety of chemistry targets ranging from small molecules to enzyme substrates. These diverse targets require a number of unique synthetic skill sets, and Laxai has delivered exceptionally. What stands out most about our interaction with Laxai is their commitment to excellence. Laxai’s upper management frequently visits our company in-person and is eager to receive feedback in order to share with the team at Laxai for continuous improvement. This “how can we do better?” philosophy has strengthened our confidence in the project team and Laxai as a whole.
US Biotech from West Coast

We are very impressed by everything the team has done for the completed and the currently ongoing projects. Furthermore, their innovative approach in scientific conceptualization, execution and flexibility has contributed a lot to the success of our projects, a true demonstration for LAXAI as Partnered Research Origination (PRO). They are highly motivated to take on any challenges in the projects and always go above and beyond to provide us with the best quality and on-time delivery. We have a great confidence in their scientific and leadership teams. They function as our extended R&D arm
Andrew L. PhD., Director of Discovery and Medicinal Chemistry, Angion Biomedica Corp’s

We were very impressed with the work of the Laxai team. The successful completion of the project is important, but to us, the desire to understand the underlying science is also critical. Successful completion of projects such as this allows our scientists to have a greater confidence in Laxai and also ensures better rapport stemming from the shared vision of scientific understanding.

Berg's drug discovery team has been working with Laxai's medicinal chemistry services for 2 years. We are very pleased with the outputs so far and look forward to expanding their support into one additional program. Over time, the Laxai team has matured into one that understands Berg's needs very well and is adaptive and responsive to dynamic changes within the project.

Thanks to the entire team at Laxai for being such gracious hosts and taking the time to show us around the facility. The facility and capabilities were most impressive and the knowledge and understanding of the entire process by the staff was commendable. Looking forward to a continued collaboration with Laxai.
US based Big Pharma, Process Chemistry

I have been very impressed with my company’s work with Laxai. We have had a very productive chemistry FTE arrangement. The Laxai team has distinguished itself with outstanding communication and chemistry execution. The interactions and data sharing have been very clear and constructive in our regular team teleconferences as well as in communications between meetings. The Laxai chemists have delivered a high level of value in chemistry execution and problem solving, being very productive in producing the molecules we request but also in recognizing issues, problem solving and effective communication about fixes with my team.
Mark Bilodeau, PhD., Chief Scientific Officer, Tarveda Therapeutics

It has been an extremely pleasant experience working with LAXAI team for the past 2 years. The chemistry team is not only highly competent, but also involve themselves proactively in the discovery. The collaboration has been highly productive based on two programs that we have run so far, one of which is nearing development. The routine (daily) communications from the project manager, teleconference with the team, logistics team etc…, has been highly satisfactory, all backed by a highly supportive management. I am looking forward to a long-continued collaboration with LAXAI
