Bionano (NASDAQ: BNGO) appointed Alex Hastie, Ph.D., as Chief Scientific Officer effective July 20, 2026. He will lead global scientific strategy, innovation, and research to expand applications of Bionano’s optical genome mapping (OGM) in research and clinical genomics.
Hastie previously spent 14 years at Bionano, helping develop its core OGM technologies and applications in cytogenomics, oncology, and rare disease. Leading genomic researchers at Radboud, Johns Hopkins, MD Anderson, and Dartmouth Hitchcock highlighted his expertise and collaborations as beneficial for advancing OGM adoption and evidence generation.
Bionano (Nasdaq: BNGO) reported strong growth in studies featuring its optical genome mapping (OGM) technology at ESHG 2026, which it views as evidence of expanding global adoption.
35 studies used OGM, a 67% increase over 21 studies at ESHG 2025, with authors from 17 countries versus 12 previously.
Research spanned rare and constitutional disorders, hematologic malignancies, solid tumors, hereditary cancer, reproductive health and cardiovascular genomics, with Europe contributing most studies and Brazil the top single-country contributor.
Bionano (Nasdaq: BNGO) reported that 13 independent studies published in 2026 analyzed 730 samples using optical genome mapping (OGM) in reproductive health and prenatal genetics. Studies covered male infertility, assisted reproduction, recurrent pregnancy loss, prenatal diagnosis and spontaneous abortion, comparing OGM with standard cytogenetic and sequencing methods.
Across key studies, OGM detected structural variants missed by prior tests, found genetic causes in unexplained infertility and recurrent miscarriage, showed up to 99.03% concordance with standard prenatal diagnostics, and helped resolve previously inconclusive carrier-screening cases when combined with long-read sequencing.
Bionano (Nasdaq: BNGO) announced the full retirement and cancellation of all outstanding Senior Secured Convertible Debentures with an aggregate face value of $20 million, issued in May 2024.
