RBCC Partner n3D BioSciences Unveils Top MAD Scientists

In a successful bid to introduce its groundbreaking 3D cell culturing technology to a budding generation of “MAD” scientists, Rainbow Coral Corp. (OTCBB: RBCC) partner Nano3D BioSciences (n3D) has announced the winners of an intriguing scientific discovery competition, The MAD Scientist Contest by n3D.

The top cash prize was awarded to Hamsa Jaganathan, Ph.D., of the Methodist Hospital Research Institute for her amazing model of a breast tumor microenvironment, created by co-culturing breast cancer cells and fibroblasts. Second prize went to Matthew Hogan at the University of Houston for his creation of a functional, or beating, primary cardiac cultures in vitro.

“The winning entries illustrate how 3-D, suspended cultures constructed using n3D technology improve data and achieve results impossible with other cell-culturing systems,” said RBCC CEO Patrick Brown. “The MAD Scientist Contest also served to introduce n3D's Bio-Assembler system to the young scientists who will undoubtedly lead cellular research into the future.”

This contest is a critical piece of n3D and RBCC's strategy to build strong interest in the Bio-Assembler among researchers across a broad spectrum of scientific and research disciplines. The system's revolutionary functionality allows it to produce accurate, 3D representations of in vivo tissues faster and easier than any other existing technology.

RBCC formed a biotech subsidiary, Rainbow BioSciences, to market and develop new medical and research technology innovations to compete alongside companies such as Bristol Myers Squibb Co. (NYSE: BMY), Biogen Idec Inc. (NASDAQ: BIIB), Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) and Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN). Rainbow BioSciences acquired an equity interest in n3D earlier last year.
