AlidaBio Launches First Service Provider Partnership with Baylor College of Medicine's GARP Core to Offer Multiplexed RNA Modification Sequencing
SAN DIEGO, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Alida Biosciences, a leader in next-generation RNA modification analysis, is proud to announce its first official service provider: the Genomic and RNA Profiling (GARP) Core at Baylor College of Medicine. This new service offering is powered by AlidaBio's EpiPlex™ Platform, the first and only solution that concurrently detects and quantifies multiple RNA modifications alongside gene expression using short-read sequencing. Officially launched in February 2025, the platform combines the EpiPlex RNA Library Prep Kit with the EpiScout™ Analysis Suite, delivering a complete, single-workflow solution to uncover the functional impact of RNA modifications in development, aging, and disease. Researchers interested in accessing this service can contact the core directly at garpcore@ "We're thrilled to see our first service provider come online at a world-class institution like Baylor College of Medicine," said Dr. Gudrun Stengel, CEO of AlidaBio. "GARP's deep expertise in transcriptomic profiling, combined with our pioneering RNA modification technology, ensures that researchers across disciplines can access this breakthrough capability through an experienced and trusted partner." "This technology represents a significant leap forward in RNA biology," said Dr. Daniel Kraushaar, Director of the GARP Core. "With the ability to simultaneously assess gene expression and multiple RNA modifications, researchers can now gain unprecedented insight into post-transcriptional regulation. We're excited to offer this cutting-edge platform to the Baylor research community and beyond." Designed for clinical and translational research, the EpiPlex Kit is optimized for samples with limited RNA input. With sensitivity down to 50 ng of total RNA, the assay can deliver high-resolution results from challenging materials like tissue biopsies or FFPE samples—where RNA tends to be fragmented and of lower quality. . The accompanying EpiScout Analysis Suite is an intuitive, informatics platform that automates analysis and visualization of complex epitranscriptomic data. By integrating multiple RNA modifications with expression data, researchers gain a multidimensional view of transcriptome regulation without the usual bioinformatics bottlenecks. The EpiPlex assay is automatable and streamlined for efficiency, enabling completion of the wet-lab portion of the workflow in a single day. It is available in 8- and 24-sample formats, supporting labs of any size. Early-access partners across academia and industry have validated the platform's accuracy, reproducibility, and potential for collaborative, large-scale studies.

Your CBD Store and Small Business Owners Call on Governor Abbott to Veto SB 3, Citing Devastating Economic Consequences
Sunmed™ | Your CBD Store® urges Texas Governor Greg Abbott to Veto Senate Bill 3 AUSTIN, Texas, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunmed™ | Your CBD Store®, along with its small business hemp retailers across the state, are urging Governor Greg Abbott to veto Senate Bill 3 (SB 3) in account of depriving law-abiding small businesses the opportunity to offer Texans wellness and therapeutic products that foster the Texas economy. Unless Governor Abbott issues a veto against it, SB 3 will ban most hemp-derived cannabinoid products currently sold at over 7,500 licensed retail establishments throughout Texas. Sunmed | Your CBD Stores are owned by independent small businesses that rely on the sale of legal and wellness hemp-derived cannabinoid products to make a living and support their families. Ralph Paul, who owns a Sunmed | Your CBD Store in Keller, Texas, warns: "If SB 3 is signed into law, I'll have no choice but to shut down my businesses. This isn't just about product bans, it's about laying off employees, defaulting on leases, and losing everything we've built. We operate legally and transparently under the Texas Hemp Program. We don't deserve to be collateral damage in a political agenda." Across the state, retailers are bracing for closures. Gary Brandt, owner of a Sunmed | Your CBD Store in Lakeway, Texas, adds: "I've invested my savings, hired local staff, and served customers who depend on our wellness products. This bill doesn't just hurt businesses, it devastates families, communities, and the state's fiscal health. We're urging Governor Abbott to veto SB 3 and stand with small businesses." According to the 2025 Economic Impact of Hemp Cannabinoid Processing and Manufacturing on Texas report by Whitney Economics, the hemp-derived cannabinoid industry is a cornerstone of the Texas economy: 53,300 Texans employed $2.1 billion in wages paid $5.5 billion in revenue generated $267 million in retail sales tax contributed $10–10.5 billion total economic impact The Whitney report underscores that this industry's influence extends beyond storefronts and into rural farming, supply chains, distribution, and manufacturing. Over 8,500 total licenses, spanning retail, wholesale, and manufacturing, will be rendered obsolete. Sunmed | Your CBD Store and its affiliate network support responsible regulation and consumer safety. However, SB 3 amounts to a prohibition and wipes out a thriving, tax-contributing industry that operates under a clear legal framework. Call to ActionWe urge all Texans to oppose SB 3. Contact Governor Abbott and request that he veto this harmful legislation: Call Governor Abbott: (512) 463-2000 Email the Governor: Contact Form Sign the Texas Hemp Business Council Petition: Sign Petition Sign the U.S. Hemp Roundtable Petition: Sign Petition Sunmed stands with small businesses and the Texas communities they serve. We believe in protecting consumer access to safe, effective hemp products and supporting the local entrepreneurs who provide them. Join us in defending our industry, our economy, and our right to choose. Contact Patrick ShatzerSunmed l Your CBD Storecustomersupport@ About Sunmed™ | Your CBD Store® Sunmed | Your CBD Store, an affiliate of Sunflora, Inc., is the largest hemp retailer in the United States and the exclusive home of award-winning, hemp-derived Sunmed products.
