Clarapath

Clarapath is a Hawthorne, New York medical robotics company that automates one of the most manual steps in cancer diagnosis: cutting and transferring paper-thin tissue sections onto slides for pathologists to read. Its flagship system, SectionStar, combines robotics, machine vision and AI to standardize tissue sectioning, cut turnaround times and ease chronic staffing shortages in histology labs. Founded in 2014 out of neuroanatomy research at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, the company has raised roughly $75 million and works with partners including the Mayo Clinic and Northwell Health.
