Description: Inspired by product sourcing models such as TripAdvisor®, 1DegreeBio’s open-access online model offers the research community a simple and efficient way to source products with a niche search engine that includes comprehensive product information, peer reviews and ratings. The core offering of 1DegreeBio is an organized forum that enables researchers to source the highest-quality products for their research needs, helping boost the reputation and sales of first-rate suppliers operating within this market, and offering valuable data and insights of interests to a range of other market stakeholders. 1DegreeBio brings to Life Sciences the first centralized marketplace founded on the principals of community consumption – whereby we connect researchers to each other based on the products they buy, while also closing the gap between the bench and the manufacturers of these vital products. 1DegreeBio is revolutionizing the way products are sourced and the way we connect in this industry.
