Nearly 50 companies sit on HudsonAlpha’s campus in Research Park
Huntsville — Polaris Sensor Technologies and Madison Core Laboratories opened offices at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology earlier this year.
“All of us welcome Polaris and Madison Core Labs to the HudsonAlpha campus,” said Carter Wells, Vice President for Economic Development at HudsonAlpha. “We look forward to working together, integrating their teams into the HudsonAlpha ecosystem.”
Polaris Sensor Technologies is developing a novel method to disinfect and sterilize through a self-dispersing dry mist. The military and commercial use includes medical facilities, equipment and especially complex scopes with integrated optics and electronics. A similar chemical formulation has potential for agricultural use, and this team wishes to develop methods to envelop plants with organic pesticides.
