increase its value in the operating room. By leveraging the expertise, track record, previous developments and_x000D_
infrastructure of the academic partner, a new laser scalpel will be developed that is capable of delivering_x000D_
spatially resolved pathology results to surgeons. Further development and integration with academic partner's_x000D_
existing technologies will result in a platform that can display information that can be used to classify tissue as_x000D_
healthy or cancerous -- and subtype the tumour -- using a technique called mass spectroscopy. This molecular_x000D_
