Amplified Sciences, which is developing diagnostics to help clinicians test for pancreatic cancer and better treat patients with pancreatic cysts, received several accolades during the virtual MedCity INVEST event July 20-24.

 

CEO Diana Caldwell said the company won the Judges’ Choice Award in the Diagnostics category, as well as the People’s Choice Award for companies in all categories.

 

“MedCity INVEST has a strong track record of bringing together startups and investors in forums that help create opportunity,” Caldwell said. “This inaugural online event provided Amplified Sciences with access to industry experts and investors. Only days after the event, we are already exploring interests from VCs and other investors.”

 

Amplified Sciences recently completed a Series Seed round of funding, including a $125,000 investment from the Indiana University Philanthropic Venture Fund. Caldwell is an IU alumna.
