AbCellera will use its full-stack, AI-powered antibody discovery platform to generate panels of antibodies for up to three Angios-selected targets to address diabetic retinopathy.

Conclusion

Well as of this writing, we have no such negative development which could justify its loss on Tuesday. We had positive news from yesterday but the ABCL stock price declined on Tuesday which does not make any sense. We can expect it to bounce back strongly in the coming days.
