VANCOUVER, BC – August 13th, 2025 – Deemos, a pioneering research company at the forefront of generative AI for 3D content, is celebrating a triumphant week at SIGGRAPH 2025, marked by winning the conference’s prestigious Best Paper Award and successfully debuting its powerful new foundation model, Hyper3D Rodin Gen-2. This victory marks the company’s first win after three nominations at the premier computer graphics conference.
The pinnacle of Deemos’s presence at the event was the recognition of its technical paper, “CAST: Component-Aligned 3D Scene Reconstruction from an RGB Image,” with the Best Paper Award. This top honor validated the paper’s groundbreaking approach to analyzing a single 2D picture and intelligently reconstructing it into a complex, component-level 3D scene. The work represents a significant leap beyond simple object creation, demonstrating an advanced understanding of object composition crucial for building detailed virtual worlds.
Building on this profound research, Deemos provided attendees with a hands-on look at the future of digital content creation at its booth. The team conducted live, interactive demonstrations of Hyper3D Rodin Gen-2, a versatile foundation model that serves as a new engine for 3D asset generation. Attendees witnessed firsthand how the technology interpreted simple text prompts or 2D images to produce intricate, high-fidelity 3D models. This process, which the company calls the “Vibe Modeling” era, moves beyond the technical complexities of traditional 3D software, allowing creativity to flow directly from idea to asset. The model’s ability to generate individual, editable parts of a larger object was a key point of interest for professionals seeking to integrate the technology into their production pipelines.
“Winning the Best Paper Award at SIGGRAPH is a tremendous honor and a powerful validation of our team’s persistent, research-driven approach to solving fundamental challenges in 3D AI,” said Qixuan Zhang, CTO of Deemos. “It was incredibly rewarding to share this moment with the community. With Hyper3D Rodin Gen-2, we are turning our most advanced research into a tangible, powerful tool. The enthusiastic reception at SIGGRAPH confirms our belief that this technology will fundamentally change the workflow for 3D artists, game developers, and virtual world builders, making it faster, smarter, and more intuitive than ever before.”
The company’s deep expertise was further showcased through a series of highly-attended technical paper presentations. In addition to presenting the award-winning “CAST” paper, the Deemos team also presented “BANG: Dividing 3D Assets via Generative Exploded Dynamics,” which details a novel method for deconstructing 3D models. They also presented collaborative research with Tsinghua University on “Facial Appearance Capture at Home with Patch-Level Reflectance Prior,” highlighting innovations in realistic human digital rendering.
The successful debut and industry recognition at SIGGRAPH 2025 mark a pivotal moment for Deemos, solidifying its position as a leader in generative 3D. The company has effectively bridged the gap between state-of-the-art academic research and practical, commercially-ready solutions that will define the next generation of digital experiences.
About Deemos: Deemos is an AI research and product company dedicated to building the next generation of 3D content creation tools. By combining cutting-edge academic research with intuitive product design, Deemos is accelerating the world’s transition to a 3D future.

ClearSight has released a new resource, LASIK Myths and Misconceptions, aimed at addressing the misinformation that often keeps people from considering LASIK as a safe and effective vision correction option. The article identifies and explains the truth behind 12 of the most common misunderstandings about LASIK, including concerns about pain, safety, cost, recovery, and long-term results. With decades of clinical data and thousands of successful patient outcomes, ClearSight’s team of refractive surgery specialists hopes to empower individuals to make confident, informed decisions about their vision.
According to the article, one of the most prevalent myths is that LASIK is painful. In reality, patients receive numbing eye drops before the procedure, which eliminates pain during surgery. While some may feel minor pressure during the process and experience temporary dryness or mild discomfort afterward, most report the experience as surprisingly comfortable. Another common concern is safety, with some believing LASIK is too risky or even capable of causing blindness. ClearSight emphasizes that LASIK is one of the most studied elective procedures in modern medicine, with an exceptional safety record. Serious complications are rare, and the practice’s use of advanced laser platforms and diagnostic tools such as corneal topography further reduces potential risks.
The resource also addresses the misconception that LASIK only works for mild vision problems. ClearSight routinely performs LASIK for a range of refractive errors, including myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. Modern technology allows correction of more complex prescriptions, meaning many who previously thought they were ineligible for LASIK may now qualify after a proper evaluation. Another persistent myth is that LASIK results wear off over time. The article explains that the vision correction achieved through LASIK is permanent, with any changes years later typically related to the natural aging process, not the procedure itself.
Cost is another barrier fueled by misunderstanding. While some assume LASIK is prohibitively expensive, ClearSight notes that it can save money over time by eliminating the ongoing cost of glasses, contact lenses, and related supplies. The practice offers financing options to make LASIK more accessible and emphasizes the value of factoring in the daily convenience and long-term savings when considering the procedure. The belief that everyone is automatically a candidate for LASIK is also clarified—while not everyone qualifies, many who assume they are ineligible are surprised to learn they can safely undergo the surgery after a thorough examination.
Night vision concerns are another topic of misinformation. Some patients worry that glare or halos will be a permanent problem, especially while driving at night. ClearSight explains that while mild visual effects may occur in the early healing period, these typically fade as the eyes adjust. Advanced laser technology used at the practice is designed to reduce nighttime visual disturbances and improve contrast sensitivity, often resulting in sharper night vision than patients had with glasses or contacts.
The article also dispels the idea that LASIK is a new or experimental treatment. LASIK has been performed for more than 25 years and is supported by extensive research in the field of ophthalmology. Millions of people worldwide, including medical professionals, pilots, and athletes, have trusted the procedure for its precision and predictable outcomes. Another overlooked benefit is quality of life. While many view LASIK solely as a way to eliminate corrective lenses, ClearSight patients frequently report improvements that extend beyond convenience—such as greater confidence, more freedom in sports and outdoor activities, and the ability to wake up with clear vision.
Finally, ClearSight addresses the belief that LASIK is purely cosmetic. LASIK is a medically guided, highly technical refractive surgery that improves visual acuity, reduces dependence on corrective lenses, and addresses real vision problems affecting daily function. It is performed with the same level of precision and care as any other form of eye surgery, with the goal of delivering both visual clarity and long-term eye health.
By publishing LASIK Myths and Misconceptions, ClearSight aims to replace confusion with clarity and give prospective patients the facts they need to weigh their options. The practice stresses that the decision to undergo LASIK should be based on accurate information and a personalized evaluation. Misinformation can prevent people from exploring a procedure that could significantly improve their vision and quality of life.
ClearSight invites reporters, editors, and medical writers to explore the full article and speak directly with its experienced surgical team to gain additional insights into the safety, benefits, and candidacy requirements for LASIK. Patients interested in learning whether they qualify are encouraged to schedule a consultation to receive a thorough eye health evaluation and customized treatment plan.

(NASDAQ:APDN) (“Applied DNA” or the “Company”), a biotechnology company focused on providing nucleic acid production solutions for the biopharmaceutical and diagnostics industries, today reported financial results for its third quarter of fiscal 2025 ended June 30, 2025. The Company’s Form 10-Q for its fiscal third quarter can be viewed on the SEC Filings page of its Investor Relations website. The Company will not host a conference call to discuss these results. Applied DNA investor relations remains available for questions at investors@adnas.com .
Following its previously announced recent restructuring and workforce reductions (“Corporate Actions”), the Company, through its majority-owned LineaRx, Inc. subsidiary, has transitioned to a pure play provider of synthetic DNA and mRNA manufacturing solutions for advanced biotherapeutics, such as gene therapies, personalized medicine, adoptive cell therapies, messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics, and DNA vaccines, as well as diagnostic applications that utilize chemically-modified DNA. The Company is commercializing three distinct and complementary technology solutions for DNA production:
LineaDNA™: A proprietary, cell-free DNA production platform that uses a large-scale PCR process to rapidly and efficiently produce high-fidelity, synthetic DNA as a market-ready alternative to plasmid DNA (pDNA). LineaDNA is applicable to biotherapeutics development and production, serving as the starting material for mRNA therapeutics and vaccines and as a critical component in numerous in vitro diagnostics (IVDs).
LineaRNAP™: A next-generation T7 RNA polymerase (RNAP) used to transcribe DNA into mRNA. Designed as a direct replacement for wild-type T7 RNAP currently utilized in conventional IVT mRNA systems that use synthetic or pDNA templates, LineaRNAP incorporates a patented DNA-binding domain that delivers high mRNA yields while reducing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) contamination, the latter a common byproduct in mRNA production.
LineaIVT™: An integrated system that combines the LineaDNA and LineaRNAP technologies and their respective benefits. For mRNA manufacturers, we believe LineaIVT offers reduced dsRNA contamination and expedited mRNA drug substance production, among other advantages.
Management Commentary
“Our operational activities center on repositioning Applied DNA as a single business that is aligned with our proven core competencies, which underpin our commercially available, cell-free DNA and mRNA manufacturing solutions offerings. With operations now right-sized, coupled with active marketing under the LineaRx brand that is now synonymous with synthetically produced DNA, we look forward to delivering value to shareholders,” stated Judy Murrah, chairperson, president, and CEO of Applied DNA.
Recent Corporate and Operational Updates
Financial
Monthly net cash burn from operations in the reported quarter declined approximately 19% on a sequential basis and 25% compared to the prior year period due to cost-cutting and optimization initiatives implemented in prior quarters. The Company expects a further reduction in the quarter ending September 30, 2025, reflecting the implementation of Corporate Actions.
Customer Acquisition and Repeat Orders
Received a multi-gram follow-on order for LineaDNA valued at over $600 thousand from a global manufacturer of IVDs for use in a cancer diagnostic application.
Added a U.S.-based mRNA contract development manufacturing organization as a customer for LineaDNA IVT templates. This customer is also evaluating LineaRNAP.
Shipped multiple LineaDNA sequences to a U.S.-based developer of a novel vaccine delivery system.
Subsequent to quarter-end, sales quotes were provided to a large public biotech and a multinational biotech tools company for LineaDNA to be used in gene editing applications.
Product and Platform Development
Launched the LineaRx IVT Discovery Kit, which enables potential customers to easily and rapidly evaluate the benefits of LineaDNA and LineaIVT performance against conventional mRNA production methods.
Launched industry marketing for LineaRNAP as a standalone product based on recent Company data confirming that LineaRNAP can be used in conventional mRNA production workflows to enable higher mRNA yields and integrity with reduced dsRNA as compared with conventional wild-type T7 RNAP. The Company also continues to market LineaRNAP as a component of its integrated LineaIVT solution.
Initiated ISO 13485 certification, an internationally recognized quality management standard aligned with GMP, to enhance customer trust, expand market opportunities, and elevate LineaRx’s competitive position. The Company expects to be ISO 13485-certified in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Participated in multiple mRNA-focused conferences to engage potential customers and showcase its platforms’ capabilities as part of LineaRx’s ongoing sales and marketing strategy.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Highlights
As part of the Corporate Actions, the Company announced the closure of its MDx Testing Services business segment (Applied DNA Clinical Labs) to focus exclusively on LineaRx. Financial results for the reported and prior periods have been recast to separately report discontinued operations and the results of continuing operations.
In February 2025, the Company announced the wind down of its DNA Tagging and Security Products and Services business segment and continues to terminate business activities in this segment in accordance with customer agreements. Financial results for this segment are included in the results of continuing operations for the reported and prior periods.
Please refer to segment information detailed in the ‘Note H – Segment Information’ section of the Form 10-Q for the period reported for more information.

Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the performance of our businesses by excluding non-cash expenses that may not be indicative of our recurring operating results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors as they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making.

Online forums and collaborative study groups offer a space for candidates to connect, share insights, and learn from one another’s experiences. This shared learning environment helps create a sense of community among candidates, which can ease the stress often associated with interview preparation.
Medical Interview Preparation has found that candidates who incorporate digital programs into their preparation, especially those who participate in four online coaching sessions, achieve a 97% success rate in UK consultant interviews. This high success rate highlights how effective these digital programs are, combining well-structured content with personal coaching and peer-to-peer interaction.
