As businesses become increasingly global, changes are also taking place at an extraordinary pace. Compliance is critical for large economies, industry regulations, and enterprise operations.
BGI Genomics prioritizes compliance management and strictly follow laws, regulations, and international practices while conducting business globally. BGI Genomics recently completed the rigorous evaluation of BSI, a major worldwide standard, testing, and certification authority. It was awarded the GB/T 35770-2022/ISO 37301:2021 Compliance Management System accreditation, making it the first enterprise in the industry to do so. This certification confirms that BGI Genomics' compliance management level has met international requirements, showcasing the company’s commitment to compliance and high-quality development.
ISO 37301 Compliance Management System Certification is internationally recognized. The PDCA concept adopted by this international standard covers establishing, operating, maintaining, and improving compliance systems. Based on governance principles, it provides a complete set of solutions for organizations to develop and operate such systems while promoting a favorable compliance culture. It aims to help organizations establish an effective compliance management system, effectively control integrity risks and enhance their compliance capabilities in business operations.
As the first enterprise to benchmark ISO 37301, BGI Genomics takes the initiative to embrace international standards. Its management greatly values the improvement of compliance management level and integrates with the international community to further implement its globalization strategy.
This certification will strengthen the brand image and market competitiveness of BGI Genomics. We will take this opportunity to deeply implement the compliance policy of "legal compliance, honest operation, employee participation, and continuous improvement." Efforts will be made to continuously upgrade the compliance system and promote technological progress and innovation in life and health with high-quality products and services. Therefore, we can play a significant role in making further contributions to public health within China and the entire world.

Niigata, Japan—Scientists have made significant progress in understanding the signals involved in regulating oral keratinocyte cell motility and proliferative capacity, offering new insights into potential pharmacological manipulation for regenerative medicine. A recent study, published in FEBS Open Bio, elucidated the role of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) and its downstream signaling cascade in controlling the behavior of oral keratinocytes.
Oral keratinocytes, which play a crucial role in the formation of the oral mucosa epithelial cell sheet, have long been enigmatic in terms of their signaling ...

Research from Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago promises to spare many premature infants from undergoing invasive eye exams to detect retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), the most common cause of preventable lifelong blindness in children in the U.S.
ROP is caused by an abnormal development of small blood vessels on the retina. Isabelle De Plaen, MD, and colleagues found that imaging the capillaries in the nailbed of preemies within the first month of life using a non-invasive technique, called nailbed capillaroscopy, can identify infants at high risk for developing ROP. This screening could eliminate the need to evaluate all premature infants with eye exams ...
