Expert Statements

Dr. Tham Seng Kong, Executive Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of Alps Group Inc

“Every service we launch is a building block toward becoming Southeast Asia’s integrated life sciences reference platform.”

Dr. Tham Seng Kong, Executive Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of Alps Group Inc

“The region has a significant and growing herbal and botanical products industry, yet access to accredited CYP inhibition testing has remained limited. PCI addresses that gap converting our scientific infrastructure into a revenue-generating capability that meets the regulatory standards already demanded by the market.”

Professor Nik Soriani, PCI Scientific Lead at MyGenome

“The assumption that all natural products are inherently safe, especially in consumption with prescription drugs, is one of the most persistent misconceptions in healthcare.”

Professor Nik Soriani, PCI Scientific Lead at MyGenome

“CYP450 inhibition testing is already recommended by the FDA and EMA for clinical and botanical products. PCI intends to make that standard accessible to manufacturers and researchers across Southeast Asia. We are building the reference laboratory Southeast Asia has been missing.”
