Bristol-Myers Squibb has undertaken a research collaboration with Grail, a computer-based DNA-sequencing firm specializing in cancer detection, aimed at developing blood tests that detect cancer in early stages. BMS will gain access to the company’s clinical trial database as a resource in understanding tumor genomics.
