Please proceed. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today to review Alamar Biosciences second quarter 2026 financial results.
Joining me on the call are Yuling Luo, our Chief Executive Officer, and Justin McAnear, Chief Financial Officer. Our President, Tod White, will join for Q&A.
