OUR TEAM
Diverge Translational Science Laboratory began in 2022 with 2 founders and 8 employees who made the leap, and diverged, from academia to industry. Today our team is bigger and more productive than ever. Imagining, creating, and growing this company together has forged a strong team culture and great friendships.
We built the company together and will continue to grow it that way.
