Foundry Medical Innovations, a Carslbad, Calif.-based comprehensive medical and diagnostic device development company, has merged with Zeis Consulting Group, a provider of IVD clinical research, and changed its name to Toolbox Medical Innovations to better leverage its strengths and serve its growing list of clients.

Along with the merger comes building improvements to its Carlsbad headquarters that include a new engineering laboratory, additional office space, numerous upgrades to the current facility, a new top-of-the line injection molding machine and a usability testing area.

"With the merger, we now have a wider focus and more tools at our disposal that will help us deliver the best in medical and diagnostic technology, such as usability studies, to our target markets," said Meghan Alonso, Toolbox Medical Innovations business development director. "Given these dramatic changes, we believe our re-branding to Toolbox Medical Innovations was definitely warranted."

Toolbox Medical Innovations now provides comprehensive medical and diagnostic device development including engineering, clinical & regulatory affairs, and complete transfer to manufacturing along with IVD clinical research.
