UKRI Awards £100k Funding For PurifAI AI Core
PurifAI Data Dashboard (Concept)
UK Research and Innovation has awarded Amped PCR significant £100k funding to accelerate the development of a sophisticated AI and Machine Learning data dashboard, a central component to the PurifAI Smart Lab.
This digital layer will revolutionise real-time pathogen detection by transforming complex laboratory data into rapid, insightful, and actionable intelligence.
The award marks a major leap forward in Amped PCR’s mission to reshape laboratory diagnostics through cutting-edge automation, seamless data integration, and next-generation machine learning tools.
“This crucial funding enables us to significantly enhance the core of our platform, bringing intelligent diagnostics closer to the point of need.”
The development of the PurifAI dashboard is central to Amped’s vision of a fully integrated, and automated diagnostic platform. It holds the potential to support critical biosurveillance efforts across diverse sectors, including agriculture, environmental monitoring and veterinary health, advancing the company’s mission to deliver scalable, data-driven solutions for One Health challenges throughout the supply chain.
The innovative technology is set to deliver substantial benefits across these key sectors:
In agriculture, it will enable early identification of livestock pathogens, improving yield protection and food security.
In environmental monitoring, it will help detect microbial threats in water and soil with faster turnaround times, supporting ecosystem health and regulatory compliance.
In the veterinary industry, it will facilitate swift diagnosis of infectious diseases in animals, reducing transmission risks and improving animal welfare outcomes.
