Nuclea Biotechnologies to Cut Jobs, Shutter Pittsfield lab
PITTSFIELD — One month after naming a new CEO, Nuclea Biotechnologies is eliminating positions in both Pittsfield and Cambridge, and closing a Pittsfield laboratory.
Nuclea officially announced both moves on Monday, stating that the lab closure and layoffs are part of a "major internal reorganization" that is designed to allow the company to focus "more fully" on the commercialization of its products.
"As part of the re-organization plan, the company is de-emphasizing some of its research and development efforts, and closing its CLIA laboratory in Pittsfield," Nuclea said in a statement. Nuclea's CLIA lab is at 48 Elm St.
