Two new AI-based tools are now accessible to all visitors on the Copan Diagnostics website. The first tool, Bioz Badges, will dynamically display Copan’s specific product mentions from within scientific literature directly on its product web pages so that potential customers can evaluate how their colleagues have previously utilized Copan technologies in the field.
